Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDragon Long is a Principal Enterprise Architect based in Louisville, Colorado, with a multi-decade track record of translating business strategy into scalable technology solutions across healthcare, telecom, retail, and distribution. At Kaiser Permanente since 2007 he has led enterprise and solution architecture for digital transformation, telehealth, interoperability, and cloud-based APIs, blending hands-on technical design with executive partnership. He specializes in SOA and microservices patterns, enterprise application integration, and healthcare standards like HL7, FHIR, and NCPDP, and has guided M&A and partnership integrations in complex care ecosystems. Known as a strategic thinker and architecture evangelist, he couples deep implementation experience (dating back to Sun Microsystems and StorageTek) with practical delivery in agile environments. Colleagues describe him as a thoughtful, plainspoken technologist—aptly summarized on GitHub as “a simple and pure person”—who prioritizes business outcomes as much as technical elegance. His combination of long-term platform stewardship and domain fluency in care delivery makes him an asset for organizations seeking to modernize clinical and operational systems.
