This role requires hands-on Epic Bridges interface development and production support, expert-level Inter Systems Ensemble (HL7 engine) experience, and the ability to independently troubleshoot interface failures in a 24x7 setting. The ideal candidate can translate clinical/business requirements into HL7 mappings and partner with technical and non-technical stakeholders to deliver stable, compliant (HIPAA) integrations with minimal ramp-up time.
You'll enjoy the flexibility to work remotely from anywhere within the U.S. as you take on some tough challenges. For all hires in the Minneapolis or Washington, D.C. area, you will be required to work in the office a minimum of four days per week.
Primary Responsibilities:- Develop, enhance, and support HL7 v2.x interfaces using Inter Systems Ensemble/IRIS as the primary integration engine
- Design, build, and support Epic Bridges interfaces and related interoperability workflows, including vendor interfaces connected to Epic
- Perform message analysis, mapping, and troubleshooting for common HL7 message types (ADT, ORM, ORU, SIU, DFT) and resolve interface failures independently
- Translate clinical/business requirements into HL7 mappings and integration specifications; create and maintain interface specs, mapping documents, and support guides
- Perform Epic-side build/configuration changes required to enable or modify interfaces
- Support Epic upgrade cycles, including Nova Notes review, regression testing, and end-to-end validation
- Monitor interface queues and transaction logs for errors/latency; coordinate remediation and communicate status and impact to non-technical stakeholders
- Ensure data exchange complies with HIPAA and organizational security standards; support secure connectivity patterns as required
You'll be rewarded and recognized for your performance in an environment that will challenge you and give you clear direction on what it takes to succeed in your role as well as provide development for other roles you may be interested in.
