Director Enterprise Architect

Job Summary:

The Director Enterprise Architect will own end-to-end architecture for the Aperture platform, Anovo's core data and reporting environment supporting specialty pharmacy operations. This role sets technical direction and standards across the full stack — application, data, infrastructure, and security — and acts as the primary architectural authority for how Aperture is built, deployed, and scaled.

This is a hands-on architecture leadership role: the Enterprise Architect will design and govern solutions across a modern cloud-native stack (AWS, Kubernetes/EKS, GitOps via Argo CD), a .NET/React application layer, and a PostgreSQL data tier, while partnering closely with engineering, data analytics, and IT leadership to ensure Aperture scales reliably to meet growing business and compliance demands.
