Job Summary:

Qualified Health is seeking a Director of Healthcare AI Partner Integration to own the end-to-end data relationship with some of the most prestigious health systems in the country. In this fast-paced, high-ownership role, you will lead a pod of Healthcare AI Solutions Engineers—forward-deployed consultants who design, build, and operate the data infrastructure powering our AI-driven clinical and operational workflows.

Your pipelines don’t just move data—they directly enable AI systems that help clinicians make better decisions for their patients. As the leader of this team, you are accountable for delivery quality, partner satisfaction, and the professional growth of every engineer in your pod. You’ll leverage AI-assisted development practices to drive speed and quality, and you’ll set the standard for what’s possible at the intersection of healthcare data and artificial intelligence.

This role demands executive-level judgment, deep technical credibility, and the consultant’s ability to earn trust quickly and adapt across complex partner environments. You take ownership, think critically, and solve problems independently—while empowering your team to do the same.

Key Responsibilities

Own the end-to-end data integration for 2–4 health system partners—from initial onboarding through live production operations—with full accountability for delivery timelines and partner satisfaction
Lead a pod of 2–3 Healthcare AI Solutions Engineers, mentoring and developing forward-deployed consultants while delivering against tight partner timelines (initial rollout target: <90 days from kickoff)
Serve as the primary technical relationship owner for your partners’ data and IT teams—running orientation calls, scoping sessions, and executive check-ins at the CTO/CMIO level, and bringing a consultant’s ability to communicate complex technical decisions to senior stakeholders
Design and build data pipelines that ingest Epic Clarity data, transform it through FHIR standards, and deliver AI-ready datasets via Delta Lake and Delta Sharing—the foundation for everything the product does; leverage AI-assisted development tooling to accelerate delivery and improve quality
Collaborate with the Product, AI Engineering and Data Science teams to scope new workflow data requirements, support product prototyping initiatives, and ensure pipeline outputs support backtesting, production inference, and evaluation
Drive continuous improvement of integration patterns, tooling, and technical standards—building reusable components that accelerate future deployments and raise the quality bar across the team

Required Qualifications:

7+ years as a data engineer or engineering leader, with experience building production data pipelines, leading technical teams, and owning client relationships end-to-end
Strong expertise in Epic Clarity/Caboodle data models—you know your way around the clinical tables that power healthcare AI
Proficiency with Databricks (PySpark, Delta Lake), SQL Server, and Azure cloud services (ADLS, Key Vault, ADF)
Experience with FHIR/HL7 healthcare interoperability standards and data transformation patterns
Executive-level client-facing communication—you can present data architecture decisions to a health system CTO, scope a new workflow with a CMIO, and debug a complex SQL query in the same day
Consultant mindset: the ability to earn partner trust quickly, adapt to new environments, and deliver high-quality outcomes under tight timelines
Data quality obsession—you build validation frameworks and monitoring, not just pipelines; you catch problems before the partner does
Ownership mentality: takes full accountability for team delivery, partner outcomes, and technical quality from scoping through production
Critical thinking: applies structured reasoning to evaluate options, anticipate risks, and make sound decisions independently under uncertainty
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science, Mathematics, or related technical field

Preferred Skills:

Experience with healthcare data from multiple EHR vendors (Epic, Cerner, eCW, athenahealth, NextGen)
Terraform or infrastructure-as-code experience for tenant provisioning
Background in healthcare consulting, EHR implementation, forward deployment, or health system IT
Experience with real-time data processing (HL7 feeds, FHIR subscriptions, streaming pipelines)
Familiarity with AI-assisted development tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or similar) to accelerate engineering and prototyping
Prior experience managing or mentoring forward-deployed engineers or technical consultants

Technical Environment:

Our data infrastructure is built on modern cloud technologies including:

Azure Databricks + Data Factory (plus Fabric and Snowflake integrations)
PySpark for distributed data processing
GitHub Actions + Terraform for CI/CD and Infrastructure as Code
Python with type-safe patterns and modern frameworks
Healthcare data formats including FHIR, Epic Clarity, and other EHR schemas

What Success Looks Like:

High-quality data pipelines delivered on schedule with thorough testing and documentation
Proactive issue identification with technical problems caught and resolved before impacting partners
Reusable components that reduce implementation time for subsequent integrations
Clean production deployments with minimal post-launch issues
Technical credibility with partner IT teams based on quality of work and consulting prescence
A high-performing pod of Healthcare AI Solutions Engineers who grow under your leadership and consistently deliver partner outcomes.
