About the opportunity.

As a Solutions Architect – Data & Information, you’ll create impact by shaping how data and information move from TAC’s legacy claims environment to a modern claims platform, ensuring critical information remains accurate, accessible and trusted throughout a major transformation.

Key responsibilities include:

• Define the data migration architecture, including migration sequencing, source-to-target mapping, data quality, reconciliation and validation.
• Design data integration and coexistence patterns that maintain consistency across legacy and new platforms throughout the transition.
• Shape information and document migration approaches, including metadata, classification, lineage, retention and governance requirements.
• Partner with analytics and reporting teams to maintain continuity of business and regulatory reporting as platforms transition.
• Provide architecture guidance and assurance across data workstreams, working collaboratively with program architects, business stakeholders and vendors to resolve issues and progress delivery.
