THE JOB

This team is “client facing” in that team members often collaborate directly with the business to further project goals, such as collecting or clarifying requirements or coordinating user acceptance testing. All team members must be comfortable interacting with nontechnical staff at all levels and will apply communication and analysis skills in addition to core technical capabilities.

This role is to own technical architecture for the Halo application. Halo was launched in early 2024, and is poised for significant expansion over the coming months and years.

There is a significant and growing backlog of changes and enhancements requested from the business, and the person in this role will ensure that the requirements are designed, implemented, tested and rolled out to the highest standards.

This individual will become the final authority on the Halo app. As new features are proposed and added, the Technical Architect will produce documented solution designs. He or she will then work with the development team to execute them. The Architect may be called upon to implement solutions directly.

The Architect is ultimately accountable to deliver solutions that are scalable, maintainable, secure, and compliant. The business’ overall satisfaction with the app is also paramount.
