  • Architect solutions that meet HIPAA, HITECH, and healthcare cybersecurity frameworks (e.g., NIST).
  • Define secure data flows, encryption standards, and PHI protection controls.
  • Collaborate with cybersecurity teams on threat modeling and risk mitigation.
Device & Edge Architecture
  • Define standards for bedside devices, mobile carts, tablets, and audiovisual peripherals used in inpatient video visits.
  • Ensure device management, network segmentation, and secure connectivity across hospital environments.
  • Architect solutions that support infection control, accessibility, and clinical usability.
Cloud & Infrastructure Alignment
  • Guide deployment models across on-premises data centers and cloud platforms (e.g., Azure, Google Cloud Platform, AWS).
  • Define high-availability, disaster recovery, and resilience strategies for telehealth services.
  • Promote infrastructure-as-code and automated provisioning where applicable.
Governance & Standards
  • Lead architecture review boards for virtual care initiatives.
  • Ensure adherence to enterprise standards for APIs, identity, observability, and data governance.
  • Maintain documentation including logical, physical, and integration architecture diagrams.
Collaboration & Stakeholder Engagement
  • Partner with clinical leadership, nursing informatics, IT operations, biomedical engineering, and digital product teams.
  • Translate clinical needs into scalable architectural solutions.
