Résumé du poste

Hippocratic AI Inc. is seeking a Director of Integration Engineering to lead the team building and operating technical connections between Hippocratic AI and every EHR and health system environment we work with.

You will own the production integration and development shop end to end, including architecture, delivery, on-call reliability, and engineering practices that keep partner go-lives on schedule and interfaces running cleanly in production.

Qualifications

• 3+ years managing a production integration and/or software development team.
• 8+ years in healthcare integration engineering with Epic, Cerner or athenahealth experience preferred.
• Experience delivering integrations with GitHub and Jira; on-call ownership.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Health Informatics, or related field.
• Deep knowledge of HL7 v2 messaging, HL7/FHIR APIs, and flat file interfaces.
• Experience with integration engines (InterSystems IRIS) and data workflows.
• Experience leading distributed teams (US and India) and partnering with IT/clinical staff.

Responsabilités

• Lead and own the production integration and development shop end to end.
• Set standards for integration architecture and delivery across Epic, Cerner and athenahealth.
• Collaborate with Product, Partnerships, and partner IT teams to scope work.
• Manage engineers across the US and India; own on-call reliability.
• Maintain and evolve CI/CD pipelines in GitHub and Jira.
• Ensure production interfaces have monitoring and clear escalation paths.
• Drive go-live timelines and prevent production incidents.

Description du poste

• As Director of Integration Engineering, you’ll lead the team responsible for building and operating the technical connections between Hippocratic AI and every EHR and health system environment we work in
• You’ll own the production integration and development shop end to end, including architecture, delivery, on-call reliability, and the engineering practices that keep partner go-lives on schedule and interfaces running cleanly in production
• You’ll work closely with Product, Engineering, Partnerships, and partner-side IT and interface teams to scope new integrations, keep existing ones healthy, and build a team and a process that scales as Hippocratic AI adds health system partners
• You’ll manage engineers across the US and India, and you’ll be the executive point of accountability for integration delivery and production stability
• Own the production integration and development shop for Hippocratic AI’s EHR connectivity, covering Epic (Interconnect, Bridges, App Orchard/Vendor Services APIs), Cerner (Oracle Health), and athenahealth, plus HL7 v2 interface feeds and flat file exchanges with partner health systems
• Set technical direction and delivery standards for the integration team, balancing new partner go-lives against the stability of integrations already in production
• Lead and grow a distributed engineering team spanning the US and India, including hiring, performance management, on-call rotation design, and day-to-day prioritization across time zones
• Establish engineering practices for code review, branching strategy, release cadence, and incident response, using GitHub and Jira as the backbone for source control, change tracking, and work management
• Set standards for the team’s engineering toolkit (Python-based data transformation, integration engines such as InterSystems IRIS and Redox, and CI/CD pipelines) and make the build-vs-buy calls on when to use each
• Partner with Product and Partnerships to scope new integration work, size effort accurately, and commit to go-live timelines the team can hit
• Maintain deep technical fluency in Epic’s integration technologies (FHIR/REST APIs, HL7v2 interfaces, Interconnect) and apply the same rigor to Cerner (Oracle Health) and athenahealth integrations as those partnerships grow
• Direct architecture decisions for HL7 v2 messaging, flat file interfaces, and modern API-based integrations (FHIR/REST), guiding the right method for each partner’s capabilities and constraints alongside the architects
• Guide the team’s use of integration engines (InterSystems IRIS, Redox) and FHIR bulk data workflows, and push toward reusable components and templates that speed up future go-lives
• Ensure every production interface has monitoring, alerting, and a clear escalation path, and drive root-cause fixes, not workarounds, when interfaces fail
• Maintain a current, defensible map of every live integration, its data flows, and its dependencies, so the team can answer “what happens if this changes” for any partner on short notice
• Track Epic, Cerner, and athenahealth platform changes (API deprecations, new interoperability mandates, vendor portal requirements) and keep the roadmap ahead of them
• Given the team’s footprint across the US and India, some flexibility for early or late meetings to overlap with the India-based team is expected, along with periodic travel to partner health systems and occasional overnight or out-of-state trips to support go-lives and escalations
• What Success Looks Like:
• Every live Epic, Cerner, and athenahealth integration runs cleanly in production, with monitoring, alerting, and documented escalation paths in place
• New partner integrations go live on committed timelines, with clear, repeatable scoping and delivery processes behind them
• The US and India integration team operates as one team, with clear ownership, consistent on-call coverage, and strong engineering practices in GitHub and Jira
• Executive leadership has a current, accurate picture of integration health, delivery status, and production risk across every partner
• Hippocratic AI has a reputation among health system partners as a technically rigorous, easy-to-integrate-with vendor
