- Partner with business, digital, product, operations, architecture, engineering, security, infrastructure, and vendor teams to shape and evolve the Virtual Care roadmap.
- Bring forward innovative ideas, solution options, and strategic recommendations that help improve provider experience and efficiency while supporting long-term business objectives.
- Influence key decisions by clearly outlining business value, technical feasibility, risk, cost, complexity, timelines, and long-term sustainability.
- Guide technology choices, application design, architecture direction, and modernization opportunities.
- Ensure Virtual Care solutions align with enterprise architecture standards, technology strategy, security expectations, privacy requirements, and healthcare technology objectives.
- Work with delivery teams to remove blockers, improve execution velocity, and ensure initiatives remain aligned to roadmap priorities.
- Partner with operations teams to improve application stability, resiliency, supportability, monitoring, incident response, and production performance.
- Provide guidance to engineering and delivery teams to ensure solutions are scalable, secure, maintainable, reliable, and designed for future growth.
- Translate complex technical concepts into clear business language for senior leaders and cross-functional stakeholders.
- Prepare and present recommendations, decision points, roadmap options, risks, and trade-offs to support informed decision-making.
- Collaborate across a matrixed environment and build alignment between business needs, digital priorities, technical strategy, and operational realities.
- Support investment planning, vendor discussions, technology evaluations, and business cases related to the Virtual Care platform.
- Help ensure technology investments deliver meaningful value to patients, pharmacy teams, healthcare professionals, and the broader organization.
WHAT YOU'LL BRING: - An undergraduate degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Technology, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
- Significant experience in technology leadership, enterprise consulting, solution architecture, application development, or a related field, ideally within healthcare, pharmacy, digital health, or another regulated environment.
- Proven ability to serve as a senior technology advisor or solution leader in complex, matrixed enterprise environments.
- Strong understanding of end-to-end technology ecosystems, including applications, integrations, infrastructure, cloud, data, security, operations, vendors, and user experience.
- Experience assessing current-state environments and developing practical future-state roadmaps, modernization strategies, architectural proposals, and business cases.
- Strong knowledge of modern architecture and development practices, including cloud platforms, microservices, APIs, distributed systems, enterprise integration, and legacy modernization.
- Ability to evaluate technology options and recommend solutions that balance business value, technical complexity, cost, risk, sustainability, and total cost of ownership.
- Experience guiding application modernization, platform stabilization, technology consolidation, cloud transformation, vendor evaluation, platform selection, and technology investment planning.
- Proven ability to influence decisions and build alignment across business, technology, operations, vendors, executives, and cross-functional delivery teams.
- Strong communication, facilitation, analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to diverse audiences.
