Palo Alto, California, United States Stanford Health Care Full time

If you're ready to be part of our legacy of hope and innovation, we encourage you to take the first step and explore our current job openings. Your best is waiting to be discovered.

Day - 08 Hour (United States of America)The Stanford Medicine Technology and Digital Solutions team was formed to provide the Stanford Medicine community with the most innovative technology services as efficiently as possible. Led by Michael Pfeffer, CIO and Michael Halaas, Chief Operating Officer and Associate Dean in the School of Medicine, the unified organization brings together the best of the School of Medicine and Stanford Health Care IT to enable new opportunities for groundbreaking work and compassionate care. Together, the Technology and Digital Solutions team will work to break down historic organizational barriers to enable even greater collaboration across Stanford Medicine hospital and clinics, and the entire University.

A Brief Overview
Reporting to the Chief Enterprise Architect at Stanford Medicine, the Director of Architecture is responsible for two key functions – Enterprise Architecture (EA) and Solution Architecture (SA).

The Enterprise Architecture function will focus on managing architecture governance including Architecture Review Board (ARB), standards and policies management, managing exceptions and waivers. The EA function also includes managing the applications portfolio data including applications, owners, functions, capabilities – all managed in the EA tool.

The Solution Architecture function will manage a team of solution architects that create blueprints for project/technology solutions. This is a small, centralized team of architects proficient in the EA tool and ArchiMate notion to describe architectures.

In order to perform this function successfully the individual must:

  • Engage business and IT stakeholders, creating and building relationships
  • Communicate the value of architecture, and its portfolio of services
  • Design and build team oriented around internal management consulting
  • Facilitate alignment between business and IT, and across the democratized IT landscape
  • Coach and mentor practitioners


The role responds to disruptive forces by helping business and IT leaders facilitate the decision-making process and providing actionable recommendations on initiatives and policies to help the organization drive targeted business outcomes. They help business leaders enable their future-state business capabilities that, in turn, drive the organization's targeted business outcomes through the choice of initiatives in which the organization chooses to invest.

The role also helps business leaders achieve business outcomes and understand, monetize and operationalize existing, new and emerging technologies. They build and motivate the architecture team — empowering solution architects — with coaching and mentoring to build a creative and safe learning environment.


The Director of Architecture leads, prioritizes, and develops the overall architecture approach for the organization, and communicates architectural direction. They have purview into (and may directly manage) other architecture-related activities and the respective roles (such as business, information, solution and technical).
