Integration Manager

Job description

You’re a senior healthcare integration engineer who lives and breathes HL7v2 and HL7v4 FHIR. Whether you’re building best in class integrations supporting hospital systems or navigating the quirks of different EHRs, you bring both technical mastery and strategic insight to every project. You love the challenge of complex integrations and are at ease leading them end-to-end, writing clean code, guiding teams, and making sure data flows exactly where it needs to.

You’re just as comfortable in the weeds of HL7 specifications as you are in cross-team conversations, helping clients and colleagues understand what great interoperability looks like. At SmarterDx, your work powers smarter decisions and generates value for health systems.

SmarterDx builds clinical AI that empowers hospitals to analyze the complete record of every patient to fully capture the value of care delivered. Founded by physicians in 2020, its proprietary AI platform understands the nuances of clinical reasoning, enabling hospitals to true the patient record for every discharge. By doing so, hospitals can recover millions in earned revenue, enhance care quality metrics, and optimize healthcare operations. Become a Smartian and help optimize the way the healthcare system works for everyone. Learn more at smarterdx.com/careers.
