With a growing roadmap of high‑impact initiatives—including AI‑driven projects—the team is expanding to bring on an experienced Azure Solutions Architect to guide this evolution.

As the Azure Solutions Architect, you’ll lead the design and delivery of secure, scalable SaaS solutions on Microsoft Azure, while enhancing development practices and architectural governance. You’ll provide hands‑on oversight across 4–5 active projects within a broader program of 10–11 initiatives this year.
You will architect cloud solutions, uplift CI/CD pipelines, review branching and deployment practices, and ensure strong IAM security across the environment. You’ll also work closely with both on‑shore and off‑shore development teams, improving quality, bridging communication gaps, and ensuring architectural consistency as the organization advances its cloud and AI strategies.

- Strong grounding in IAM security, RBAC, least‑privilege controls, and cloud governance
- Experience reviewing and improving branching strategies, code quality, and release processes across distributed teams
- Exposure to AI services or involvement in AI‑related project delivery
- Ability to support a full cloud migration and contribute to ongoing digital transformation
- A self‑starter, proactive, driven to take ownership and move projects forward
- Healthcare experience is helpful but not required
What You’ll Get in Return
You’ll have the opportunity to influence cloud architecture at scale within a sector that directly impacts communities. You’ll lead meaningful modernization initiatives, work with diverse teams, and shape Azure standards, security practices, and application modernization in a dynamic, mission‑focused environment.
