Distinguished Architect, Software Development – Claims Automation and Processor Enablement serves as a senior technical leader for the architecture and evolution of an enterprise Claims Automation and Processor Enablement ecosystem. This individual contributor role involves defining the technical North Star for intelligent claim assessment, workflow orchestration, and Payment Integrity capabilities. You will build a cohesive architectural roadmap to integrate independently owned products into a scalable, sustainable claims architecture. Key responsibilities include establishing integration patterns, APIs, and shared services while guiding engineering organizations toward a target state that balances automation with human oversight. You will utilize expertise in distributed systems, AI-assisted recommendations, and rules engines to solve complex problems in high-volume transaction-processing environments. The role requires navigating legacy platforms, including COBOL, CICS, and DB2, to ensure operational stability and regulatory compliance.
Experience introducing automation, analytics, decisioning, or intelligent capabilities into high-volume operational workflows.
Proven ability to influence technical decisions and lead large engineering organizations through technical credibility rather than positional authority.
Experience leading technology transformation in complex, high-volume transaction-processing environments.
Experience with healthcare payer systems, claims processing, Payment Integrity, or other high-volume regulated transaction-processing environments (preferred).
Experience unifying independently developed applications and platforms into a cohesive ecosystem (preferred).
Experience integrating AI/ML, intelligent automation, rules engines, analytics, or decisioning platforms into operational workflows (preferred).
Experience working with large-scale legacy or mainframe platforms and designing modern capabilities that coexist with or progressively decouple from them (preferred).
Familiarity with COBOL, CICS, DB2, batch processing, or comparable legacy transaction-processing technologies (preferred).
Familiarity with regulatory and compliance environments such as HIPAA, CMS, or SOX (preferred).
Experience building or leading platform-engineering, developer-experience, or reusable-capability initiatives (preferred).
Contributions to industry thought leadership, open source, technical publications, or professional communities (preferred).
