Job Specifications

Title: Data Architect
Job Type: Contract
Contract Length: 3 Months
Target Start Date: Mid-January
Work Location/Structure: Philadelphia, PA About the Opportunity:
Our client, a leader in Healthcare/Medical Device Technology, is looking for a strategic Data Architect to lead a high-impact initiative to transform patient care & HCP experiences for a 3-month engagement. This project involves defining the end-state architecture, moving the client away from Legacy constraints and toward a modern, FHIR-aligned model across AWS, Azure, and Salesforce. This is a high-impact role that requires a self-motivated professional who can hit the ground running and deliver results quickly. Key Responsibilities & Deliverables:
Define End-State FHIR Architecture to Enable Care Teams: Develop the recommended end-state architecture, defining precisely how FHIR resources (eg, Practitioner Role, CareTeam, EpisodeOfCare, Organization/Location, etc.) will be represented, governed, and exchanged across the Client's platforms.
Drive Legacy Migration Strategy: Deliver a deep-dive inventory and dependency map of systems, data domains, and integrations. Identify required data elements for Care Teams and evaluate data gaps relative to current on-prem sources and Legacy schemas.
Establish Implementation Strategy: Recommend a phased sequence of major technical activities required to enable Care Teams across internal systems, establishing architectural guardrails for implementation.
Document and Align Strategy: Consolidate all findings, diagrams, and recommended approaches into a concise, actionable technical strategy document. Drive alignment and secure signoffs with Client stakeholders in a matrixed organization.
Serve as a Trusted Technical Leader: Partner closely with the Client's engineering and business stakeholders to produce deliverables to support planning and execution. Required Skills & Experience:
8-12+ years of experience in data architecture, enterprise integration, or healthcare interoperability.
Deep expertise in HL7 FHIR R4/R5, resource modeling, profiling, and implementation guides. This isn't a learning role-you need to be a subject matter expert.
Demonstrated ability to assess Legacy systems and design modernization/migration strategies.
Strong understanding of core healthcare domains: provider/facility modeling, episodes of care, care coordination, and identity management.
Strong communication skills to synthesize complex technical landscapes into clear architectural recommendations and stakeholder-ready deliverables.
