Enterprise Architect

The Opportunity
As Enterprise Architect, you will shape Dentalcorp’s technology architecture across applications, data, integration, infrastructure, and security. Reporting to the Senior Director, Data Engineering and Architecture, you will define the standards, reference architectures, and roadmap to evolve fragmented tools into a scalable, standardized, data- and AI-enabled platform. Through hands‑on technical leadership and enterprise-wide influence—not direct operational ownership—you will connect clinical, operational, and patient data across Snowflake, practice‑management systems, and analytics and AI tools, guide platform modernization, and establish repeatable integration for newly acquired practices. Partnering with Applications, Data & AI, Infrastructure, Product and Engineering, Cybersecurity, Corporate Development, and business and clinical teams, you will use practical governance to accelerate delivery while balancing reliability, cost, technical debt, compliance, privacy, and risk.Who You Are
You are a hands‑on enterprise architect with broad systems thinking and deep expertise in data, integration, cloud, and enterprise platforms. You connect strategy with technical design, bringing structure to a changing, fragmented, acquisition‑intensive environment. You balance long‑term standards with delivery, operations, security, cost, and business needs. You explain complex concepts clearly to technical and non‑technical audiences and build trust through practical recommendations, follow‑through, and measurable results. You influence without direct authority, partnering across Technology, Corporate Development, business, and clinical teams. You constructively challenge unnecessary complexity, risk, and technical debt while keeping governance focused on enabling delivery.In This Role
Define enterprise architecture, standards, reference designs, and a measurable roadmap across applications, data, integration, infrastructure, and security. Translate technical dependencies and trade‑offs into business outcomes, balancing modernization and delivery with reliability, cost, technical debt, security, compliance, and operations. Connect clinical, operational, and patient data across Snowflake, practice‑management systems, and analytics and AI tools;
set standards for modelling, master and reference data, metadata, lineage, and quality. Partner with Data & AI on shared foundations for reporting, analytics, AI engines, agents, and data products, preserving delivery and ownership accountability. Create and refine a repeatable acquisition‑integration playbook with Corporate Development and Technology teams, standardizing onboarding across practice systems, identity, data, applications, infrastructure, networks, and security. Provide architectural oversight for Okta, NetSuite, Workday, Snowflake, Tableau, and AWS alongside system owners, guiding cloud, API, event‑driven, identity, infrastructure, and data integration. Review designs for dependencies, risks, and standardization opportunities, ensuring practical, scalable architecture across the Canadian and U.S. practice network. Lead lightweight governance and design reviews, contribute to data‑governance and technology forums, and elevate material exceptions affecting business, security, privacy, cost, or operations. Partner with Cybersecurity on security, compliance, risk, and privacy by design;
build stakeholder trustthrough hands‑on leadership and clear accountabilities across Technology, business, and clinical teams. Track roadmap progress and demonstrate the value of architecture standards and governance through more consistent, transparent, high‑quality technology decisions.What You’ll Bring
