Are you looking for a place where you are empowered to bring innovation to reality? Join MarinHealth, an integrated, independent healthcare system with deep roots throughout the North Bay. With a world-class physician and clinical team, an affiliation with UCSF Health, an ever-expanding network of clinics, and a new state-of-the-art hospital, MarinHealth is growing quickly. MarinHealth comprises MarinHealth Medical Center, a 327-bed hospital in Greenbrae, and 55 primary care and specialty clinics in Marin, Sonoma, and Napa Counties. We attract healthcare’s most talented trailblazers who appreciate having the best of both worlds: the pioneering medicine of an academic medical center combined with an independent hospital's personalized, caring touch. MarinHealth is already realizing the benefits of impressive growth and has consistently earned high praise and accolades, including being Named One of the Top 250 Hospitals Nationwide by Healthgrades, receiving a 5-star Ranking for Overall Hospital Quality from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and being named the Best Hospital in San Francisco/Marin by Bay Area Parent, among others. The Principal Cloud Solutions Architect is a senior-level technical and strategic leader responsible for guiding Marin Health’s journey toward a modern, secure, scalable cloud and hybrid infrastructure. This role will evaluate existing on-premises platforms, develop migration roadmaps, and architect resilient Microsoft Azure-based solutions that meet operational, clinical, and regulatory demands. The architect will design and implement Azure environments using best practices, ensure that Azure Site Recovery (ASR) is fully tested and validated prior to production, and lead end-to-end migrations of systems from on-prem to cloud. In this capacity, the individual will collaborate closely with the Principal Systems Architect to ensure architectural continuity between on-prem and cloud platforms and serve as a backup in their absence. They will work in partnership with our Infrastructure, Network Engineering, and Cybersecurity teams to ensure Zero Trust principles are embedded into network and access design from inception through steady-state operations. The role will also coordinate with third-party vendors, healthcare partners, and providers operating hybrid systems, including those hosted on Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud Platform. This position will be instrumental in developing comprehensive disaster recovery, backup, and business continuity strategies, mentoring engineering staff, and elevating Marin Health’s overall architectural maturity. Additionally, the role will collaborate with IT leadership and Finance to create resource estimates, project timelines, and detailed Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) models, including 7-year cost projections and budget impacts for new or evolving systems and platforms. This leader will play a pivotal role in enabling Marin Health to become a best-in-class, cloud-enabled, highly available environment that supports patient care delivery with greater resilience, scalability, and operational efficiency.
