- 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
