Role: Azure Solution Architect
Location: Remote,
Duration: 12+ months Contract
About the Role: We are seeking a highly experienced Solution Architect to lead the architecture and discovery for a strategic enterprise initiative to build a secure, repeatable UAT/Pre-Production and Data Replication platform for a leading healthcare technology organization.
The engagement begins with a Discovery phase that will define the architecture, implementation roadmap, and delivery approach for a production-grade environment capable of:
Building a production-like UAT/Pre-Production environment.
Supporting secure cloning of environments across the enterprise.
Implementing data de-identification aligned with enterprise privacy policies.
Enabling repeatable, on-demand environment provisioning and refresh capabilities.
The architect will work closely with Enterprise Architecture, Data Engineering, DevSecOps, Platform Engineering, Security, and Data Privacy teams to define a scalable, HIPAA-compliant solution that transitions seamlessly into implementation.
Key Responsibility:
Lead the overall architecture for the UAT/Pre-Production platform, ensuring alignment across application, data, infrastructure, and security domains.
Design scalable architectures for:
Production-like UAT environments
Enterprise environment cloning
Data synchronization
Environment refresh automation
Operational repeatability
HIPAA-compliant production data handling
Define mechanisms to support:
Full environment cloning
Customer-specific cloning
Multi-tenant data selection
Source and target environment abstraction
Incremental refresh
Partial refresh
Repeatable cloning workflows
Design the architecture so cloning becomes an operational capability rather than a one-time migration exercise.
Required Qualification:
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related discipline.
10+ years of Solution Architecture experience. 5+ years designing enterprise Azure solutions. Strong expertise in: o Azure Cosmos DB o Azure SQL o Distributed application architecture o Event-driven systems o Enterprise integration Experience designing large-scale data synchronization platforms. Experience with enterprise data migration or replication solutions. Experience architecting secure healthcare or regulated environments. Strong client-facing consulting and workshop facilitation skills. Preferred:
Experience with: Snowflake Azure Data Factory Azure Functions Kubernetes (AKS) Terraform Delphix Data masking and de-identification HIPAA compliance Healthcare platforms Multi-tenant SaaS architectures Event Sourcing / CQRS CI/CD platforms Infrastructure as Code
Success Measures: At the end of the Discovery engagement, the Solution Architect will have successfully: Defined the target architecture for the UAT/Pre-Production platform. Designed a reusable enterprise environment cloning capability supporting multiple source and target environments, full-environment and customer-specific cloning. Produced the architecture for Cosmos DB/Azure SQL hydration and synchronization with Snowflake. Defined the enterprise approach for database de-identification using Delphix in alignment with Data Privacy and HIPAA requirements.
Designed a repeatable, on-demand environment provisioning and refresh process rather than a one-time implementation.
Delivered architecture documentation, implementation roadmap, effort estimates, and technical recommendations that enable a seamless transition into implementation
