Job Description

Our leading non profit healthcare client is looking for a Data Architect.

The successful candidate will lead strategic initiatives in health data architecture with a focus on healthcare data modeling and interoperability, particularly using HL7 FHIR® standards. In this role, you will guide the development of data models for interoperable healthcare datasets and lead the CA Core+ national FHIR profiling strategy. You will work at the intersection of clinical data, enterprise integration, and digital health, collaborating across jurisdictions.Key Responsibilities:
  • Lead the development of data models and entity relationships for pan-Canadian health data elements.

  • Align FHIR profiles (CA Core+) with logical data models (e.g., pCHDCF/CACDI).

  • Facilitate and coordinate cross-functional architecture workgroups involving clinical, business, and technical stakeholders.

  • Promote best practices in data governance, quality, and security across system designs.

  • Define architectural standards for FHIR resource structures, extensions, slicing, and value sets to ensure semantic integrity and reuse.

  • Make data-driven architectural decisions balancing clinical, jurisdictional, and technical priorities.

  • Act as the liaison between business needs and implementation teams (FHIR experts, data architects, developers, etc.).

  • Manage the scope, timelines, and delivery of key initiatives such as CA Core+ and data mapping projects.

  • Provide leadership to overcome technical challenges and unblock delivery by optimizing designs, tools, or processes.

  • Collaborate with external partners (CIHI, vendors, ministries) to align modeling and data exchange strategies.

  • Ensure all work adheres to privacy, consent, and enterprise security frameworks.

Experience & Skills:
  • 5+ years as a data or enterprise architect with a focus on data modeling.

  • 5+ years in healthcare IT (e.g., EMRs/EHRs, health information exchange, or public health systems).

  • 3+ years of experience working with FHIR standards, including profiling, slicing, and resource modeling.

  • Familiarity with enterprise architecture frameworks (TOGAF, Zachman) is an asset.

  • Experience with cloud-based data architecture is a plus.

  • Strong grasp of healthcare data entities (Patient, Encounter, Observation, etc.).

  • Knowledge of Canadian health data standards (e.g., pCHDCF, CA Core+, SNOMED CT, LOINC).

  • Experience in healthcare data governance, metadata management, and quality control.

  • Understanding of privacy and identity standards (OAuth2, OIDC, SAML).

  • Track record of mentoring technical teams and fostering cross-disciplinary collaboration.

  • Proficient with FHIR modeling tools (Forge, IG Publisher, Simplifier.net).
  • Experience with modeling tools (e.g., UML, EA tools).

  • Familiarity with data architecture concepts like logical/physical modeling and metadata strategies.

  • Understanding of RESTful APIs, identity and access management, and cloud-native design patterns.

  • Skilled in documentation and diagramming tools (Visio, Lucidchart, draw.io, MIRO).

Preferred Certifications:
  • TOGAF, AWS/GCP/Azure Architect certifications.

  • HL7 FHIR Certification or equivalent hands-on experience developing FHIR specifications.
