Job description

As our Integration Engineer, you will untangle, consolidate, and optimize the critical data pipelines that keep healthcare workflows moving. You are a data fixer and systems architect rolled into one. You’ll spend your short-term sprint diving headfirst into our MIRTH and BridgeLink environments, cleaning up legacy HL7 feeds, and establishing a single, bulletproof stream of communication. Partnering closely with clinical administrative staff and local facility engineers, your work ensures that medical systems talk to each other without missing a beat. It’s a fast-paced, high-visibility project where your technical updates make an immediate, tangible impact. Why This Position is Different

  • A Masterclass in Optimization: No long, drawn-out corporate timelines here. You come in, diagnose the HL7/MIRTH bottlenecks, clean the pipelines, and cross the finish line.
  • High Visibility: Work hand-in-hand with facility infrastructure engineers and administrative leaders who eagerly await your data clean-up strategies.
  • Skill Expansion: Got DICOM skills? You’ll get to put them to work alongside your core HL7 toolkit, bridging clinical text data with medical imaging workflows.

What Success Looks Like

  • Surgical Cleanup: Audit, consolidate, and safely decommission redundant or lagging HL7 communication channels within your first 30 days.
  • Engine Tuning: Re-configure channel scripts and mappings inside Mirth Connect/BridgeLink for maximum throughput and zero message loss.
  • Collaborative Delivery: Act as the technical liaison, coordinating with non-technical administrative workflows to minimize system downtime during cutovers.

Requirements

  • Required Technical Skills: HL7 V2/V3 protocols, interface optimization/cleanup, and integration engine experience with Mirth Connect or BridgeLink. DCM4CHE experience required. Data mapping, channel consolidation, system testing, and legacy pipeline auditing., * The Mid/Early-Career Mover: You have a solid foundational footprint in healthcare IT (2-5 years) and are looking to show what you can build when given autonomy.
  • The Engine Expert: You possess proven, hands-on experience building or maintaining message routes inside MIRTH Connect or BridgeLink.
  • The Protocol Fluent: You natively understand HL7 structures, data segments, and data types, using SQL or JavaScript to manipulate data accurately.

Benefits & conditions

  • Contract Duration: 60 to 90 days. Potential for extension of FTE conversion.
  • Schedule: 40+ hour work with “on-call” shift during evenings/weekends per business need.
  • Employer Value Proposition: 60 to 90-day engineering sprint. Opportunity to own a localized optimization project end-to-end, wipe out technical debt for a medical network, and build an immediate, high-visibility portfolio milestone. Migrating from legacy systems to cutting-edge radiology systems. Potential for a long-term engagement if candidate is interested and business need aligns. ** Please discuss with Recruiter. **
