About the Opportunity
An established leader in the healthcare technology sector is building a new enterprise platform that will transform the customer onboarding experience across multiple business functions. This is a unique opportunity to join at the ground level, partnering with senior technical leaders to help shape a modern Azure-native application that will become a strategic internal platform.

In the early stages, you'll provide technical leadership by guiding architecture discussions, reviewing vendor solutions, and ensuring enterprise integration standards are met. As the platform transitions to internal ownership, you'll evolve into the technical lead responsible for driving ongoing development, mentoring engineers, and helping build the team around the application.

What's In It for You
Join a highly collaborative environment where your technical expertise will directly influence the success of a strategic enterprise initiative. You'll work alongside experienced architects and cross-functional technology teams while helping establish engineering standards that will shape the future of the platform. This role offers the opportunity to grow into long-term technical ownership within a culture that values innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

Your Responsibilities
• You'll partner closely with Solution Architects to review technical designs and validate enterprise architecture decisions.
• You'll provide technical governance for vendor-delivered solutions, ensuring alignment with security, compliance, SDLC, and operational standards.
• You'll guide enterprise integrations across Azure, SAP, Salesforce, Master Data Management, and middleware platforms such as MuleSoft or comparable technologies.
• You'll collaborate with cybersecurity, infrastructure, operations, QA, and business stakeholders to support successful solution delivery.
• You'll lead technical reviews, knowledge transfer activities, and ultimately transition into hands-on ownership of the platform as the internal engineering team expands.
• You'll contribute to enterprise-scale solution design, modernization initiatives, Agile delivery, and DevOps best practices.

Skills and Qualifications
• 10+ years of progressive software engineering experience, including Lead Engineer or Technical Lead responsibilities.
• Hands-on experience designing and delivering Azure-native enterprise applications.
• Strong background in enterprise integration, middleware, API orchestration, and distributed system design.
• Experience integrating enterprise platforms such as SAP, Salesforce, Master Data Management, and MuleSoft or similar integration technologies.
• Demonstrated experience partnering with Solution Architects, conducting design reviews, and providing technical governance for complex software initiatives.
• Strong understanding of Agile delivery, CI/CD, DevOps, enterprise SDLC, security, compliance, and regulated technology environments.
