Summary
Jay Ward is an IT software architect and managing consultant with 10+ years of hands-on experience designing and delivering scalable, production-grade systems across healthcare and web infrastructure. He bridges business strategy and engineering—translating clinical and operational needs into architectures using FHIR/HL7, Docker/OpenShift/Kubernetes, and a broad stack from Oracle/Caché to MongoDB and React. Jay is technology-agnostic by design, choosing the right tools for the problem rather than following trends, and he’s repeatedly automated complex workflows (CI/CD, billing, abuse detection) to enable growth with minimal staff. His background includes building IP reputation and spam-detection clusters, deep InterSystems HealthShare/IRIS integrations, and even AR experiences via Unity, reflecting a blend of pragmatic systems thinking and curiosity for new platforms. Based in South Jordan, Utah, he pairs rapid learning with long-term operational focus to make exploratory tech evaluations cost-effective and outcome-driven.
