Job description
YOU'RE technically A visionary.
The Opportunity
You don't just design systems — you shape how technology enables an entire organization to move forward.
As a Senior Staff Technology Architect, you'll play a critical leadership role in defining and executing AMA's enterprise architecture strategy across software development, integration, data, infrastructure, AI, and security. Reporting to the Principal Software Architect and working closely with other technology leaders and business stakeholders, you'll translate architectural vision into execution paths that support AMA's strategic goals.
This is a unique opportunity to operate at the intersection of strategy, architecture, research, and delivery — influencing direction, mentoring leaders, and ensuring AMA's platforms are scalable, secure, and future-ready.
The Team You've Been Looking For
AMA is more than a workplace; it's a family. Together, we help protect the things that matter most to our more than one-million members—everything from roadside safety to retail savings, food security to childhood well-being. And with operations that span automotive, registries, travel, insurance, and more, the opportunities to grow with us are almost limitless
Building on a century of proud service in Alberta communities, we're passionate about making a meaningful difference in the places where we live and work. And that all begins with our people. As part of the AMA team, you'll enjoy:
- Competitive salary and flexible benefits
- Employer-paid retirement savings program
- Employee-exclusive discounts on travel, insurance, memberships, and more
- Free travel medical insurance for you and your immediate family
- Ongoing professional development
- Paid vacation and personal days, including a Volunteer Day and Me Day
- Flexible work models that make sense for your lifestyle
Who You Are

- You bring progressive experience across enterprise, solution, and application architecture
- You think in systems, understand trade-offs, and balance innovation with pragmatism
- You communicate complex architectural concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences
- You're a trusted advisor, mentor, and collaborator
- You thrive in Scaled Agile (SAFe) environments and enjoy shaping intentional architecture
- You question the status quo, push boundaries, and advocate for thoughtful, well-designed solutions
- You manage complexity with calm focus and see ambiguity as an opportunity
How You'll Make an Impact
- Lead and execute AMA's Enterprise Architecture strategy across all architecture domains
- Define and implement execution paths for architecture roadmaps aligned to business goals
- Collaborate with architects and technology leaders to define, refine, and prioritize Intentional Architecture Enabler Epics using SAFe
- Participate in and influence Architecture Steering Committee decisions
- Drive architecture PoCs and pilots that validate emerging technologies and approaches
- Establish, evolve, and enforce architecture governance, standards, and documentation.
- Ensure compliance with security, privacy, responsible AI, and regulatory requirements
- Mentor architects and senior technologists, fostering a culture of technical excellence
- Stay ahead of trends by researching and evaluating emerging technologies (AI, cloud‑native, IoT, edge, GenAI, and multi-agent computing)
What You Bring to the Table
- University degree in Computer Science or a related discipline (or equivalent experience)
- 5+ years of progressive experience in software development and architecture
- 3+ years of experience in integration architecture and API management
- Hands‑on experience across multiple architecture domains (application, integration, data, infrastructure, security, AI)
- Strong knowledge of DevOps, CI/CD pipelines, and automated testing
- Experience with modern development stacks and languages (C#, Java, .NET, , TypeScript)
- Solid understanding of observability, security, and cloud platforms
Bonus points if you have:
- Experience with agile enterprise architecture
- Cloud experience (AWS preferred)
- SAFe Architect or related certifications
- Progressive leadership experience influencing large, cross‑functional teams
