EHR Data Lead
RemoteUnited States
Job Summary
Get read and write access into fragmented practice EHRs via FHIR APIs, HL7 feeds, VPN, portal pulls, or CSV exports to land data for engineering normalization. Coordinate with vendors and practice IT to negotiate access, troubleshoot connections, and oversee Data Transfer Agreements. Design and ship clinical notifications like GDMT prompts and transitions-of-care signals directly into provider workflows. Perform first-pass mapping of raw patient data toward standardized models and apply AI tooling to extract unstructured clinical data where direct integration fails. Support partner and payer integrations by ingesting eligibility and claims files while partnering with engineering on downstream cleaning and error troubleshooting. Ensure strict HIPAA compliance throughout all data transmission and handling.
Required Qualifications
- 5–7+ years of experience in healthcare technology, EHR implementation, or interoperability
- A track record getting live data access across multiple ambulatory EHR systems — through APIs, HL7/FHIR, VPN access, portal pulls, or other nonstandard paths
- Working knowledge of healthcare interoperability standards (FHIR, HL7v2, C-CDA) — enough to use them fluently, not necessarily to have built interface engines from scratch
- Experience navigating vendor and practice-IT relationships to secure access — you can drive a procurement or coordination conversation, not just a technical one
- Comfort operating across the spectrum from clean API integrations to scrappy, get-it-working approaches
- Fluency with clinical and value-based care concepts: eligibility, claims, attribution, transitions of care, and GDMT
- AI-native and genuinely curious about automation. You can automate yourself into being 3x as effective using SQL, Python, or tools like Claude — and you'll pass a basic coding assessment
- A pragmatic, ownership-minded approach — you simplify what's overcomplicated, and you ship
- Working knowledge of HIPAA and data protection requirements as they apply to clinical data transmission and third-party data sharing
- Periodic travel to practice sites or Chamber offices as needed
- Must be authorized to work in the U.S. without sponsorship
Desired Qualifications
- Master's degree preferred
