Healthcare Interoperability Support Engineer

Your Daily Mission
The Client Support Engineer is responsible for diagnosing and resolving complex interoperability issues across the organization’s data exchange ecosystem. This role performs deep technical analysis of interoperability failures—including FHIR APIs, HL7 messaging, and network integration by analyzing logs, system behavior, and data flows. This position owns root cause determination, partners with Engineering and Product to drive resolution, and supports customer escalations alongside integration leadership. The role also contributes to operational improvement through knowledge sharing and light data analysis. Primary focus on two interoperability frameworks, with exposure to additional networks over time. Works across internal systems, external networks, and third-party partners. Operates in a fast-paced, issue-driven environment with a focus on reliability and resolution.
