About the Opportunity:
ZipStaff is seeking a senior Enterprise Architect to support post-acquisition technology integration at a major healthcare organization.
You will define target-state architecture and integration principles for an acquired entity, evaluate technology alignment, identify rationalization opportunities, and shape future-state operating models. This is a senior architecture and governance role — not an application-development or infrastructure-admin seat.
What You’ll Do:
- Define target-state architecture and integration principles for the acquired entity.
- Evaluate current-state technology alignment against the enterprise architecture and integration strategy.
- Identify application and platform rationalization opportunities.
- Design future-state operating models spanning business, application, and integration layers.
- Establish and apply architecture governance across integration workstreams.
- Partner with technology, business, and integration stakeholders to drive architecture decisions.
- Produce clear architecture artifacts that support executive decision-making and program execution.
Required Qualifications:
- 10+ years of enterprise architecture, technology strategy, or integration-architecture experience.
- Proven experience defining target-state architecture for complex enterprise environments.
- Hands-on experience with integration architecture across multiple systems and platforms.
- Demonstrated experience with application rationalization (assess, retain, retire, replace, or consolidate).
- Strong architecture governance experience.
- Ability to evaluate technology alignment and recommend future-state operating models.
- Excellent communication skills with technical and executive stakeholders.
- Must be a U.S. Citizen or Green Card holder (no sponsorship now or in the future).
Preferred Qualifications:
- Healthcare, life-sciences, or other regulated-industry architecture experience.
- Prior M&A / post-acquisition integration architecture experience.
- Familiarity with TOGAF or comparable enterprise-architecture frameworks.

To apply, please submit your resume highlighting your enterprise architecture, integration architecture, application rationalization, and governance experience.
