Job description

Job Description: Better and fairer care. Always. St Vincent's has been a leader in Australia's health and aged care landscape for more than 165 years. Since our founders, the Sisters of Charity, opened our first hospital in 1857, our services and nearly 30,000 people have been behind some of Australia's most important medical breakthroughs. We are a microcosm of Australia’s health and aged care system and are uniquely positioned to lead and respond to our rapidly changing environment. We are looking for a special kind of person, a St Vincent's kind of person. Someone who puts excellence, compassion, connection and caring for other people at the heart of everything they do. St Vincent's is embarking on our transformation journey to deliver 50% of care to our customers at home. This means that our data follows the patient across every care setting: acute, rehabilitation, virtual care, aged care and home. Behind it sits a new real-time data hub and governed API gateway, the interoperability layer that lets a patient view result, manage bookings and take actions, with every action flowing back to update the right clinical system automatically. This is the engine room of our Bringing Care Home ambition, and the integration work you lead will decide whether it succeeds. As our Senior Integration Analyst Developer, you will be the primary technical authority responsible for architecting, building and governing the integration fabric that unifies our public, private and aged care divisions, and for modernising that fabric from overnight batch interfaces to real-time, bidirectional exchange.

Key responsibilities of the role:

• Serve as the lead developer and architect for the enterprise integration engine and the new real-time data hub, optimising message routing and transformations for peak performance.
• Design, build and publish FHIR APIs through our governed enterprise API gateway to serve patient and clinician-facing applications, including secure write-back to core patient administration and clinical systems.
• Write, test and deploy high-fidelity code for HL7 v2.x, FHIR and CDA interfaces, moving legacy point-to-point feeds onto reusable, event-driven integration patterns: connect a system once, reuse it everywhere.
• Act as the primary technical lead for outsourced projects, conducting rigorous code reviews and architectural audits to ensure external partners adhere to SVHA standards.
• Design sophisticated failover and disaster recovery protocols and optimise the architecture to deliver 50% virtual care data by 2030.
• Provide daily technical mentorship and career coaching to Integration Specialists, fostering a culture of excellence and continuous learning.

Things that work for us:

• 10+ years in healthcare integration, including at least 5 years in a Senior or Lead Developer type role.
• Expert-level proficiency in FHIR, HL7 v2.x, CDA and API Management (REST/JSON), with experience publishing governed APIs to patient-facing or consumer applications highly regarded.
• Practical experience with event-driven and streaming integration patterns alongside traditional interface engines.
• Mastery of healthcare middleware and languages.
• Demonstrated experience overseeing technical teams or vendor delivery in high-acuity clinical environments.
• A tertiary qualification in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
• Certifications in HL7 FHIR (Level 2+) or cloud data engineering (Azure/AWS) will be highly regarded.

Things that work for you:

• Build the APIs behind our digital estate, to connect patients and families as their care moves between hospital, virtual care, aged care and home.
• Support the implementation of a multi-divisional Health Information Exchange and implement Interoperability by Design to prevent digital silos.
• Shape a once-in-a-generation modernisation: your integration patterns become the permanent building blocks every future capability reuses.
• Work in a highly supportive team environment where your work directly empowers 30,000 caregivers to deliver exceptional care.
• Enjoy a genuine balance with a hybrid model based out of our modern offices in Sydney, Brisbane, or Melbourne.
• Competitive salary packaging options.
• Discounted private health insurance.
• Employee Assistance Program for staff and their families.
• Access to the Fitness Passport (FP).
