Director of Platform Engineering

JUN 2026 - PRESENT · 3 months

Leading the rebuild of Health Access Solutions' core technology, replacing a legacy system with a modern, cloud-native platform built for a HIPAA-regulated health benefits business. I own platform architecture, engineering direction, and the technical strategy, leading a small team of principal engineers and contractors. Scope spans: • Architecture & infrastructure: AWS, PostgreSQL, and a federated GraphQL API layer; CI/CD with PR-based preview environments; SLO/severity frameworks and HIPAA-compliant monitoring. • Product platform: Member-facing dashboards, authentication and access control, and the systems running benefits administration, payment requests, and disbursements. • Applied AI: Production AI architecture for payment requests and policy workflows: RAG over a versioned policy catalog and multi-node agent pipelines for adjudication. • Org & process: Hiring, role design, and a requirements-driven agile process that turns every signed-off system into a canonical specification for rebuilds and DR. I partner closely with operations and finance leadership to keep technical strategy tied to business outcomes: turnaround commitments, cost, and member experience.
