Job description
The Integration Engineer leads the design, governance, and maintenance of enterprise-level interoperability systems supporting imaging workflows, patient identity management, and cross-system data exchange. This role blends architectural vision with hands-on administration of interface platforms and health data standards that drive our connected radiology ecosystem. The ideal candidate combines deep technical expertise in HealthShare/IRIS (or similar integration engines) with strong familiarity in radiology information systems (e.g. Royal, eRAD) and data interoperability across DICOM and HL7/FHIR protocols.
- Build, configure, and maintain interfaces and data transformations using ObjectScript, HL7 v2.x, FHIR, CCD/CDA, JSON, and XML standards
- Oversee and optimize HealthShare/IRIS engines for scalability, uptime, and data fidelity
