The Opportunity

As a Solutions Architecture Consultant with a focus on the healthcare industry, you’ll play a key role in bridging the gap between pre-sales strategy and project delivery. Drawing on your deep knowledge of healthcare systems and technical delivery, you’ll help shape, architect, and launch impactful solutions that align with client and executive partner goals. Whether leading architectural discovery for new healthcare initiatives or guiding in-flight projects as an individual contributor, you’ll ensure solutions are both technically sound and aligned with regulatory and operational needs.

You’ll engage with prospective healthcare clients to explore how our capabilities can meet their unique challenges, lead architecture efforts for new engagements, and collaborate closely with delivery teams to bring client visions to life. You’ll also provide critical estimates around team composition, build scope, and resource planning—ensuring healthcare projects are realistically scoped and staffed for success.

Between engagements, you’ll lend your expertise across teams as a flexible problem-solver, while deepening your knowledge in areas like cloud platforms (e.g., AWS) or healthcare-specific technologies.

Responsibilities

• Presale: Lead scoping, technical design, and work planning during the presale process while speaking with prospective clients about your project team’s capabilities.
• Delivery: Play the lead role in technical architecture and discovery projects, using consulting methods to refine the product and technical architecture of client projects.
• Subject Matter Expertise: Own a “technology vertical”, encompassing solution design, platform selection, implementation support, and thought leadership (e.g. AWS, Content Management Systems, hybrid mobile frameworks, etc.).
• Roving Catalyst: Enhance existing project teams with architectural account-level guidance or specific subject matter expertise.

Qualifications

• Multi-platform familiarity, with expertise in one or more of the following:
  • Front-end mobile technologies (iOS, Android, Web/JS)
  • Backend cloud and/or enterprise platforms (AWS/Azure)
  • Content management systems, analytics platforms, and other 3rd party frameworks
• Healthcare industry expertise - specialized knowledge of the healthcare ecosystem and the ability to highlight the importance of understanding healthcare specific challenges - regulations like HIPAA, GDPR, HITECH Act, and data interoperability standards such as FHIR and HL7 and DICOM.
