Software Architect

MEDHOST is hiring a Software Architect to join their team! The successful candidate is a technical leader responsible for the architecture of MEDHOST’s applications and products.

This role sets architectural direction, evaluates technologies that strengthen our products, and coaches and mentors others to a higher level.

The Architect also leads the team’s adoption of AI-driven development, applying the AI-Driven Development Life Cycle (AI-DLC), large language models (LLMs), and AI coding agents to accelerate delivery while maintaining architectural quality and human oversight.

The Architect partners with product management, application management, operations, fellow architects, and development team leads in strategic, tactical, and design planning.

What your impact will be:


* Set the architectural vision and milestones for teams building highly scalable Java and web-based applications.


* Lead the adoption of AI-driven development practices, including the AI-Driven Development Life Cycle (AI-DLC), and define how AI coding agents such as Claude Code are used across the inception, construction, and operational phases.


* Establish standards for reviewing, testing, and validating AI-generated code and design artifacts to ensure quality, security, and maintainability.


* Evaluate and architect solutions that integrate large language models (LLMs) into MEDHOST products and internal workflows, with appropriate attention to security, privacy, and regulatory requirements.


* Employ the existing architectural stack and collaborate with the rest of the enterprise to evolve it.


* Review and approve technical designs to ensure the architectural integrity of the system, and help teams deliver according to development standards.


* Participate in the complete software development lifecycle within an Agile process, from requirements through testing and deployment.


* Plan for performance requirements, set performance targets, and troubleshoot production bottlenecks, including JVM, application server, and database performance.


* Develop and evolve development practices (e.g., unit test strategies, code review, build, and deployment).


* Evaluate new technologies and develop proofs of concept as needed, while staying current with technology and architecture trends.


* Meet with clients and internal users to determine long-term system needs and requirements that support the company’s business objectives and external client interface requirements.


* Provide technical support and assist clients with technical implementation requirements and plans.


* Coach and mentor team members (regardless of role: developer, tester, or product manager) on the appropriate use of technology to address customer and business needs.


* Maintain the effectiveness and implementation of the MEDHOST Quality Management System and meet applicable regulatory requirements as needed.
