Partner with internal and external teams to design scalable, secure, and standards‑compliant interfaces. Oversee development and deployment of APIs and microservices supporting interoperability with major EMR/EHR vendors. Ensure documentation and validation artifacts support audit and regulatory readiness. Utilize JIRA, Confluence, and similar tools to manage technical tasks, track dependencies, and report progress.
