The Applications Platform Expert is a senior individual-contributor role providing deep technical mastery, cross-team solutioning, operational solution impacts and informal leadership within the Applications organization. This role has expertise across a broad healthcare delivery domain, with deeper experience in 1-2 functional technical application areas. This role exists to ensure that the organization's most complex technical, architectural, and solutioning challenges are met with consistent, well-defined expertise that can work across IT functions to examine all available tools and solutions and to bring the right combination to the design.

This position is expected to maintain current, authoritative knowledge of the platform's capabilities,(new releases, features, vendor roadmap) and proactively identifies where these should be applied before a challenge or request exists. The Platform Expert operates as a trusted technical authority, a mentor, and a contributor to team and departmental roadmaps, while explicitly deferring people-management, task assignment, and performance-evaluation authority to formal management and project leadership.

Partners with other IT teams as a peer convener — able to run or co-run cross-team solutioning sessions, not simply attend them. Clearly distinguishes the exploratory/advisory solutioning phase from the committed design phase, so early options-generation is not mistaken for a locked decision.
