Technical Lead / Solution Architect

• Set and defend the technical approach for decomposing legacy functions into microservices without breaking users in production
• Govern architecture across a multi-vendor codebase, including reviewing and integrating code merges from other contributors
• Keep every component deployable on multiple cloud providers without modification, per contract requirements
• Write and maintain architecture decision records so decisions outlive the people who made them

• Guide development teams across Java/Spring services, the React UI, data pipelines (Kafka, Debezium, NiFi, Elasticsearch), and SQL Server persistence
• Direct the technical side of record matching, electronic case reporting, and configuration tooling modernization workstreams, completing in-progress work
• Maintain a strong security posture: current dependencies, urgent vulnerability remediation on defined clocks (15 days critical, 30 days high), and audit-ready evidence
• Own technical quality gates: unit test, static analysis, dependency, container, and infrastructure scanning enforced before merge and release

• Work with the Public Health Informatician and Epidemiology SME so architecture decisions serve surveillance workflows
• Support migration engineering for multiple jurisdiction onboardings per year, including environment setup and configuration validation
• Advise the program manager on technical feasibility during sprint planning and release sequencing

• Chair design reviews and adjudicate pull requests, including cross-vendor merges
• Review pipeline health and scan results with the DevSecOps lead; triage new vulnerabilities against remediation clocks
• Serve as the final technical escalation for production incidents behind the help desk tiers
• Pair with workstream leads on the hard problems: matching algorithm integration, event pipeline resilience, legacy interface quirks
• Keep the public demonstration environment current with the latest general availability release
• Publish and refresh engineering standards (branching, build, artifact, signing, scanning) on a quarterly cadence

• Master's degree and at least 8 years of relevant experience, or Bachelor's with equivalent substitution
• Hands-on architecture ownership of Kubernetes-based microservice platforms (EKS or AKS, Terraform, Helm)
• Depth in Java/Spring and event-driven architectures (Kafka or equivalent), plus production experience with search or pipeline tooling such as Elasticsearch and NiFi
• Experience sustaining legacy Java estates alongside modernization work

• Open-source project delivery, ideally in government contexts
• Prior work on health or public health data systems; HL7 exposure
• Windows container and SQL Server operational experience
• Section 508 and accessibility-aware front-end engineering
