Guide significant technology decisions and help Engineering and Product teams make informed architectural tradeoffs.

Identify emerging technologies and capabilities that can strengthen IMO Health’s platforms and products. 

Platform, Data & Knowledge Architecture

Shape the enterprise architecture vision and guide the evolution of IMO Health’s technology ecosystem.

Establish clear platform boundaries, ownership, interfaces, and shared capabilities to reduce duplication, fragmentation, and technical debt.

Align application, platform, API, data, knowledge graph, integration, security, and cloud architecture.

Advance the IMO Health Knowledge Graph and related clinical knowledge assets as foundational capabilities for clinical AI and next-generation products.

Identify opportunities to simplify the technology ecosystem and build reusable capabilities that can be leveraged across products and platforms. 

AI & Technical Innovation

Define and promote scalable architecture patterns for AI-enabled products and workflows, including knowledge-grounded AI, agentic systems, retrieval, evaluation, observability, and human oversight.

Work directly with teams on complex technical challenges, including system design, technology evaluation, prototypes, and proofs of concept.

Validate emerging technologies and approaches before significant investment or roadmap commitments are made.

Translate architectural direction into practical, reusable solutions and establish a clear path from experimentation to production.  

Architecture Leadership & Partnership

Lead and develop the Enterprise Architecture team while maintaining high expectations for technical depth and hands-on contribution.

Partner closely with Engineering, Product, Informatics, Data Science, Security, and Infrastructure leaders to connect business priorities with architecture and execution.

Mentor architects and technical leaders and strengthen the broader technical leadership community across IMO Health.

Help teams navigate complex technical tradeoffs, resolve cross-platform challenges, and turn architectural direction into executable plans.

Establish lightweight mechanisms for architecture alignment, decision documentation, knowledge sharing, and reuse without creating unnecessary governance or delivery bottlenecks.

Represent IMO Health’s technical capabilities in select strategic customer and partner engagements involving architecture, integration, data, clinical informatics, and AI.
