About the role

Qualified Health is seeking a Director of Epic Forward Deployed Engineering to build and lead the team that sits at the intersection of our AI platform and the health systems we serve. This is not a project management role—it’s a technical leadership position for someone who has lived inside Epic implementations, knows how health system IT and clinical informatics teams operate, and can credibly design integration solutions in front of a CMIO or Epic interface team.

What they're looking for

  • 8+ years in healthcare IT, Epic implementation, or clinical informatics, with at least 2 years in a leadership or principal role
  • Deep, hands-on experience with Epic’s integration ecosystem: Bridges (HL7 v2 interfaces), SMART on FHIR, CDS Hooks, MyChart, and In Basket / SendMessage API
  • Proven track record running Epic go-lives or directing implementations at Epic partner organizations, Epic consulting firms, or large health systems
  • Executive-level communication—comfortable presenting architecture decisions to a health system CTO, facilitating workflow design sessions with clinical champions, and debugging interface issues with an Epic analyst in the same day
  • Experience managing client relationships end-to-end, including scope negotiation, escalation management, and stakeholder alignment across large, matrixed health system organizations
  • Familiarity with FHIR R4 interoperability standards and modern EHR integration patterns
