Join us and be part of something bigger – helping to simplify health care one person, one family and one community at a time.

Overview

Defines and drives enterprise-scale digital solutions by designing end-to-end architectures, guiding engineering teams through implementation, and influencing the overall technical strategy across the organization.

This role can work remotely from anywhere in the continental USA.

Primary Responsibilities

Architect end-to-end solutions balancing functional, non-functional (scalability, security, resilience, performance), and maintainability requirements.
Lead architectural decisions across teams — establishing design patterns, reference architectures, and technical standards.
Develop architectural maturity models and strategic roadmaps to guide teams from concept through production, including deployment and rollback strategies.
Define integration strategies across platforms and third-party systems, ensuring interoperability.
Establish engineering quality standards through review frameworks, test strategies, and resolution of complex technical issues.
Maintain architectural documentation (solution blueprints, ADRs, architecture diagrams) while mentoring engineers.
Partner with Product, Engineering, and UX to translate business objectives into technical roadmaps within agile methodologies.
Lead production incident response, driving root-cause analysis and systemic improvements.

Required Qualifications

8+ years in large-scale software development, with 3+ years in solution architecture or technical leadership.
Strong proficiency in Java with architectural experience using Spring, Spring Boot, and RESTful APIs. 5+ years collaborating with cross-functional stakeholders (Product, Engineering, UX).
Deep understanding of OOP, design patterns, distributed systems, concurrency control, and parallelism.
2+ years hands-on with cloud platforms (GCP, Azure, or AWS) including cloud-native patterns.
Mastery of architectural decision-making — evaluating technology trade-offs and applying best practices.
Experience with AI assistant tools such as Claude, Codex, Cursor, etc.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with Node.js/NestJS, GraphQL (schema design, federation), and modern UI frameworks (React, Angular, or Vue) including SSR/CSR.
Hands-on experience with auth frameworks (OAuth 2.0, OIDC, SAML, JWT) and API security patterns. Experience with microservices, event-driven architecture (Kafka), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and observability tooling.
Knowledge of data architecture — relational/NoSQL databases, caching (Redis), and data modeling at scale.
Understanding of regulatory compliance and CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions).
Openness to leveraging emerging technologies, including AI, to enhance architectural solutions.
Pharmacy domain knowledge.
Strong communication skills; experience mentoring engineers and driving outcomes across teams.

Education

Bachelor's degree, or equivalent experience (HS diploma + 4 years relevant experience)
