Plan A Technologies is seeking a hands-on Solutions Architect with deep experience designing and building technology solutions for U.S. hospitals and health insurance companies/payers. This is a highly technical, client-facing role for someone who understands the complexity of the U.S. healthcare ecosystem and can translate clinical, operational, payer, and regulatory requirements into scalable, secure, production-ready solutions.

Candidates must have direct experience architecting solutions for U.S. healthcare providers and/or health insurers. We are specifically looking for someone who understands how hospitals and payers operate, including their workflows, data environments, integrations, security requirements, and regulatory obligations.

Please note: You must have at least 10+ years of software development experience, including 3+ years in a Solutions Architect or Technical Lead role, plus substantial hands-on experience building solutions for U.S. hospitals and/or health insurance companies.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

• Own end-to-end solution architecture, from discovery and requirements gathering through implementation and production delivery.
• Design scalable, secure, highly available, and HIPAA-compliant architectures for hospitals, health insurers, and other complex U.S. healthcare organizations.
• Translate complex clinical, payer, claims, member, and healthcare operational workflows into effective technical solutions.
• Serve as a senior technical partner to healthcare clients, communicating confidently with executives, product leaders, engineering teams, clinical stakeholders, and operational teams.
• Lead architectural decisions involving healthcare data, system integration, interoperability, APIs, messaging, and event-driven architectures.
• Design and oversee integrations with EHR/EMR platforms and other healthcare systems, using standards including HL7 and FHIR.
• Ensure solutions meet applicable U.S. healthcare security, privacy, and regulatory requirements, including HIPAA.
• Architect systems that securely manage sensitive healthcare information, including PHI, clinical data, member data, claims data, and related information.
• Collaborate closely with engineering teams to guide implementation and ensure adherence to architectural, security, performance, scalability, and reliability standards.
• Provide hands-on technical leadership and mentorship throughout the software development lifecycle.
• Identify architectural risks, dependencies, integration challenges, and delivery blockers early and proactively drive solutions.
• Contribute to technical discovery, estimates, architecture documentation, solution diagrams, technology selection, and long-term technical strategy.
• Lead technical workshops, architecture discussions, solution presentations, and client-facing discovery sessions.

EXPERIENCE

• 10+ years of professional software development experience, with strong expertise in C#/.NET.
• 3+ years of experience as a Solutions Architect, Software Architect, or senior Technical Lead, with responsibility for architecture and delivery decisions.
• Significant direct experience designing and building technology solutions for U.S. hospitals and/or health insurance companies/payers.
• Strong understanding of the technology environments, operational processes, and business workflows used by U.S. healthcare providers and insurers.
• Experience working with clinical systems, payer platforms, healthcare data platforms, or similarly complex healthcare environments.
• Strong understanding of HIPAA, PHI, healthcare security, privacy, and regulatory compliance.
• Experience with healthcare data such as clinical records, patient information, eligibility, enrollment, claims, member data, provider data, or related datasets.
• Strong experience designing integration-heavy and data-intensive enterprise systems, including REST APIs, messaging, and event-driven architectures.
• Cloud architecture experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP, including designing secure and compliant cloud environments.
• Solid understanding of enterprise security, identity and access management, encryption, privacy, and data protection.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and modern software development lifecycle practices.
• Ability to operate independently in a fast-moving, distributed environment and drive initiatives without waiting for detailed direction.
• Strong client-facing communication skills and the ability to explain complex technical topics clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Excellent verbal and written English communication skills.
