Job description
We're in the middle of one of the most ambitious technology transformations in our company's history: modernizing a full-scale P&C insurance operation for the cloud era, embedding AI across our core business, and rebuilding how we architect, deliver, and operate technology at scale.
This is a seat at the table. As Enterprise Architect, you'll report directly to the CIO and set the architectural direction for the entire organization, from cloud strategy and AI/ML platforms to API governance and application modernization. Your decisions will shape how we underwrite, handle claims, serve customers, and compete in the market for years to come.
If you want a role where your architecture work drives real business outcomes — not just documents that sit on a shelf — this is it.
- Hybrid with a requirement to be within driving distance of our Enumclaw Home Office / come into the office at least 3 days/week.
- Relocation assistance is available for qualified candidates.
- May provide leadership and mentorship to architecture team members, solution architects, and technical leads across the enterprise.
- Define and evolve our enterprise architecture vision, roadmap, and governing principles, ensuring every major technology decision connects back to business strategy.
- Lead architecture governance to maintain standards, reduce complexity, and accelerate delivery across business units including HR, Finance, Underwriting, Claims, and Customer Engagement.
- Own our cloud adoption strategy across hybrid/multi-cloud environments, optimizing for cost, performance, security, and compliance.
- Set cloud-native standards — microservices, containers, serverless, event-driven architecture — and lead the migration from legacy systems with clear, prioritized transformation roadmaps.
- Architect the platforms and pipelines that enable our AI/ML capabilities, from model development and deployment to monitoring and MLOps.
- Build responsible AI governance into the foundation: validation, bias detection, explainability, and regulatory compliance.
- Establish an API-first integration framework that enables secure, reliable connectivity across our application portfolio.
- Define observability standards — logging, monitoring, tracing, alerting — to underpin operational excellence.
- Communicate architectural direction and recommendations to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Embed security-by-design across all architecture work: IAM, zero trust, encryption, and secure pipeline practices.
- Ensure alignment with applicable insurance regulations and security frameworks.
- Evaluate emerging technologies and run proofs of concept to validate business value.
- Mentor solution architects and technical leads across the enterprise.
- Communicate architectural direction clearly to both technical teams and executive stakeholders.
- 10+ years in IT, with at least 5 years in enterprise or solution architecture roles
- Experience in P&C insurance or another highly regulated industry (financial services, healthcare)
- Hands-on cloud architecture experience with AWS, Azure, and/or GCP
- Familiarity with ERP platforms or CRM tools like Salesforce
- Strong command of microservices, APIs, event-driven design, and distributed systems
- Experience leading cloud transformation and application modernization programs
- Proficiency in DevOps, CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, and container orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)
- Experience architecting or overseeing AI/ML solutions and MLOps practices
- Excellent communication skills — able to influence executives and align engineering teams alike
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related field
- Enterprise architecture certification (TOGAF or Zachman)
- Cloud certifications (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
- Master's degree in a relevant field
- Certifications in Kubernetes, DevOps, AI/ML platforms, or security frameworks

- Direct Impact: You'll have the authority and budget to drive real architectural change, not just advise on it.
- Greenfield Opportunity: Much of what you'll build doesn't exist yet. This is a rare chance to establish standards and platforms from the ground up.
- Collaborative Culture: You'll partner closely with business leaders across the organization — your voice matters here.
