Core Responsibilities

  • Project Execution & Delivery: Own end-to-end project planning, execution, and delivery of technical integrations and support post-go-live stabilization. Manage cross‐team communication to ensure alignment on timelines, dependencies, testing expectations, and rollout steps. Maintain accurate project documentation, including plans, status updates, SOPs, and client-facing deliverables.
  • Technical Problem Solving & Integration Support: Partner with internal engineering and interoperability teams and external client teams to troubleshoot and resolve issues using tools such as Redox, Mirth, Epic and Salesforce. Analyze discrepancies (e.g., mismatched IDs, outdated packages, record‐level inconsistencies) and guide teams toward accurate resolution. Proactively identify risks and bring forward recommendations and solution options when issues arise.

  • Testing, Validation & Quality Assurance: Oversee integration testing efforts, ensuring environments are properly configured. Ensure teams understand what features, changes, or fixes are included in each build so QA/test activities start with the right expectations. Identify gaps in process visibility (e.g., unclear version control, missing installation steps, outdated packages) and push for improvements. Validate that environments are prepared for testing and that issues discovered in QA are documented and communicated appropriately.
