  • Collaborate with senior architects to translate business and clinical requirements into technical solutions
  • Evaluate and recommend appropriate AWS services for specific use cases
  • Support delivery teams with technical guidance, design reviews, and troubleshooting
  • Participate in solution design for hybrid integration scenarios (cloud-to-on-premise, SaaS-to-platform)
  • Contribute to infrastructure-as-code practices and CI/CD pipeline design
  • Ensure solutions meet healthcare regulatory and compliance requirements (HIPAA, GxP where applicable)

    • Strong understanding of API-first design, RESTful APIs, and asynchronous messaging patterns
    • Familiarity with integration patterns: event sourcing, pub/sub, saga, request-reply
    • Experience integrating enterprise systems (ERP, CRM, clinical systems, or supply chain platforms)
    • Knowledge of data transformation, mapping, and protocol mediation
    • Experience with middleware, iPaaS, or integration platforms
  • General
    • Understanding of DevOps practices and CI/CD pipelines
    • Able to produce clear technical documentation and architecture diagrams

    • Awareness of healthcare data standards (HL7, FHIR) is a plus
  • AI & Machine Learning
    • Awareness of AI/ML concepts and how they apply to enterprise workflows
    • Familiarity with cloud-based AI/ML services (any provider) such as natural language processing, document extraction, or predictive analytics
    • Interest in or exposure to generative AI, large language models, or AI-assisted automation
    • Understanding of how AI capabilities can be integrated into existing application architectures
    • Awareness of responsible AI principles and data governance considerations
  • Agentic AI
    • Familiarity with agentic AI patterns — autonomous agents that plan, reason, and execute multi-step tasks with minimal human intervention
    • Exposure to agent orchestration frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, or similar)
    • Understanding of tool-use patterns where AI agents invoke APIs, query databases, or trigger workflows autonomously
    • Awareness of multi-agent architectures — coordinating specialized agents for complex business processes
    • Interest in applying agentic AI to enterprise use cases such as intelligent document processing, automated decision support, or self-healing integrations
    • Understanding of human-in-the-loop patterns, guardrails, and safety mechanisms for autonomous AI systems
