You will lead a team of software and database architects serving five product groups across a US healthcare software company. This is a change leadership role: the team is technically capable and the mandate is to evolve how that capability is applied - shifting from a requirements-driven software architecture model toward a model that pairs that work with proactive, business-driven enterprise architecture. The right candidate brings both architecture credibility and a track record of leading technical teams through meaningful operating model change .
Responsibilities
Lead a team of software and database architects - hiring, development, performance, and career growth.
Drive the team's evolution from reactive, requirements-driven software architecture toward proactive, enterprise-scoped architecture work that begins from business problems, not handed-down requirements.
Operate a phased engagement model: time-bounded stakeholder discovery, phases that close on decisions rather than deliverables, and regular checkpoint communication with stakeholders.
Partner actively with Product Management - initiating SME conversations and shaping requirements rather than waiting for them to arrive.
Model and coach AI-augmented delivery practices across the team: concurrent work streams, incremental delivery, and AI-assisted exploration and drafting as normal parts of how architects work.
Serve as the primary management touchpoint for the team.
Coach the team toward constraint-aware design - reinforcing through recognition and example that designing well within business and timeline constraints is elevated craft.
Serve as the team's local leadership presence in Peru, maintaining alignment with country-specific labor, data, and operational regulations.
Requirements
Advanced English level.
10+ years of experience in software or systems engineering with meaningful exposure to architecture.
3+ years in a management or technical leadership role.
Demonstrated experience leading a technical team through a change in operating model or working culture - not just inheriting a stable team.
Personal, working-level experience with AI-augmented development practices; able to model it, not just advocate for it.
Business English proficiency sufficient for executive stakeholder communication.
Experience leading engineering teams in Peru strongly preferred.
Exposure to enterprise architecture practice (TOGAF, Zachman, or equivalent) preferred.
Experience with cloud platforms (AWS or equivalent) and modern application architecture patterns preferred.
Healthcare or regulated-industry background is helpful but not mandatory.
