  • Extensive knowledge of how Epic Bridges and Ensemble interact during message flow and error scenarios.

  • Epic Bridges certification (required); Epic Data Courier certification (preferred/strong plus).

  • Strong verbal and written communication skills, including the ability to explain issues clearly to non-technical stakeholders.

  • Experience working in HIPAA-regulated healthcare IT environments.

  • Experience supporting 24x7 production and on-call environments.

  • Available to start immediately (minimal or no ramp-up time).

 

Preferred Qualifications

  • Epic Data Courier certification.

  • FHIR and/or API-based integration experience.

  • Secure transport and file transfer (VPN/TLS, SFTP) configuration and support.

  • Experience with HIEs, external registries, and cloud integration patterns.

  • Additional scripting/programming experience (e.g., Python, Java, .NET, JavaScript).

 

Must Have (Non-Negotiable) Skills

  • Epic Bridges interface development and production support (5+ years) in a live Epic healthcare environment (certification required).

  • Expert-level InterSystems Ensemble/IRIS used as an HL7 engine (5+ years) for HL7 v2.x development and production support.

  • HL7 v2.x message analysis/troubleshooting for ADT, SIU, ORM, ORU, DFT, 837/835, 270/271, 276/277, and 278 interfaces (and related workflows) including independent resolution of interface failures.

  • Hands-on understanding of Epic Bridges ↔ Ensemble message flow and error scenarios in a 24x7 production/on-call environment.

 

Important (Strongly Preferred) Skills

  • Translate clinical/business requirements into HL7 mappings; produce clear interface specifications and mapping documentation.

  • Perform Epic-side build/configuration changes to enable or modify interfaces; support vendor interfaces connected to Epic.
