Job Summary
We are seeking a senior Healthcare Integration Architecture Consultant for a short-term, high-impact engagement to help shape the integration foundation for a healthcare organization undergoing modernization.
This consultant will assess the current integration landscape, define a practical target-state architecture, evaluate the fit of iPaaS and API-led integration approaches, and recommend governance, standards, and a roadmap that supports interoperability, scalability, and future digital capabilities.
This is a strategy + architecture engagement, not a generic architect role and not a pure hands-on developer position. The ideal consultant has recent experience leading integration architecture initiatives in large enterprise healthcare environments and can work effectively with both business and technical stakeholders.
What You ll Deliver
- Current-state assessment of the integration landscape, risks, and gaps
- Target-state integration architecture aligned to business and technology goals
- Recommendations for integration governance, ownership, and design standards
- Evaluation of iPaaS/API/event platform fit within the broader architecture
- Reference patterns for APIs, orchestration, workflow, and service integration
- Guidance on security, resiliency, scalability, and observability requirements
- Practical roadmap with quick wins, dependencies, risks, and decision points
- Knowledge transfer and working sessions to upskill internal teams
Must-Have Experience
- Strong recent background in Integration Architecture with the last 2 3 years primarily focused on integration architecture, not a broad architect role
- Experience with at least 2 iPaaS platforms such as Boomi, MuleSoft, webMethods, Workato, Informatica, or similar
- Experience helping evaluate, select, architect, or implement an iPaaS solution
- Strong knowledge of FHIR APIs and healthcare interoperability concepts
- Experience with HL7, APIs, and healthcare integration patterns
- Experience in healthcare provider or payer environments
- Experience working in a large enterprise with complex application ecosystems such as Epic, SAP, claims, EHR/EMR, or other major enterprise systems
- Strong communication skills and ability to work independently with leadership and delivery teams
Ideal Background
- Healthcare payor experience strongly preferred
- Consulting background strongly preferred
- Experience defining:
o integration strategy
o governance / operating model
o architecture standards
o API / iPaaS / event platform recommendations
- Ability to balance executive-level advisory work with practical architecture guidance
What This Is Not
- Not a generic Enterprise Architect role
- Not a pure developer/integration engineer role
- Not a staff augmentation role for building one or two interfaces
Not a platform-specific admin role
