• Defining and enforcing architectural standards, best practices, and patterns that ensure quality and consistency across teams.

• Partnering with product, engineering, and regulatory groups to deliver compliant, highquality platforms.

• Driving modernization efforts - refactoring legacy systems, migrating to modern architectures, and enabling new capabilities.

• Evaluating emerging technologies and guiding longterm technical strategy.

• Mentoring engineers and supporting a strong, forwardthinking engineering culture.

• 8+ years of software architecture experience across distributed or enterprisescale systems.

• Strong background in .NET or Java, and experience with JavaScript (JS).

• Industry experience in healthcare, medical devices, or life sciences.

• Solid understanding of cloud platforms - AWS preferred - and secure systems design.

• Expertise in microservices, eventdriven architectures, APIs, and modern architecture patterns (layered, hexagonal, CQRS, DDD).

• Knowledge of DevOps practices and InfrastructureasCode (e.g., Terraform).

• The ability to communicate architectural direction clearly across both technical and nontechnical teams.

• A bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.

Preferred experience includes: leading digital transformation initiatives, working with edgecomputing patterns, knowing regulatory frameworks like FDA/ISO 13485/IEC 62304/HIPAA, or building dataintensive and realtime systems.
