## Direct-match strengths

Enterprise architecture, cloud platforms, distributed systems, healthcare/life sciences, knowledge graphs, AI/RAG/agents, governance, and hands-on technical leadership

## Hard or material gaps

Direct ownership of a formal enterprise-architecture department is less explicit than Keith's repeated architecture leadership. Clinical terminology operations are adjacent to his bioinformatics, ontology, and healthcare-platform background.

## Evidence map

1. Enterprise architecture strategy — direct across AWS, MassMutual, TriMark, NorthBay, and product companies.
2. Cloud-native distributed platforms and APIs — direct hands-on evidence.
3. Healthcare and clinical/scientific informatics — direct Ph.D., pharma, bioinformatics, FDA-regulated, and health-tech evidence.
4. Knowledge graphs and ontologies — direct Neptune, UMLS, Ingenuity, and genomic knowledge-discovery evidence.
5. Knowledge-grounded AI, RAG, agents, evaluation, and governance — direct recent evidence.
6. Architect and technical-leader development — direct through teams, AWS communities, mentoring, and architecture standards.
