Key skills for this role
You are a healthcare integration engineer with deep expertise in interface engine development and HL7. You are equally comfortable developing complex interfaces, managing integration platforms and their cloud-hosted environments, and supporting mission-critical production integrations. You understand how to diagnose issues across interface engines, HL7, applications, network connectivity, and infrastructure, and bring the hands-on expertise needed to own problems through resolution.
You will be a technical owner of SmarterDx’s healthcare integration platform, with a primary focus on interface development, platform operations, production support, and technical best practices. Our platform processes a high volume of healthcare data across customer connections, making reliability and availability critical. You will help establish the standards, processes, and documentation that keep our integrations reliable and maintainable as we grow.
While this is primarily a hands-on technical role, you will also work directly with customer technical teams when needed to support implementations, connectivity, troubleshooting, and other integration needs.
At SmarterDx, your work will directly enable our mission of empowering hospitals to tell the most accurate patient stories.
