Director, Partner Integration

Transform healthcare with us.

Qualified Health is seeking a Director of Partner Integration to own the entire data relationship with some of the most prestigious health systems in the country. As a Director of Partner Integration, you run your own pod: a small, elite team of Senior Data Engineers who build, validate, and operate the data infrastructure that powers 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. You'll have a Director title because that's what this work requires: executive-level judgment, client relationship ownership, and technical leadership all in one person.

• 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 customer satisfaction
• Lead a pod of 2-3 Senior Data Engineers, mentoring them while delivering against tight customer timelines (initial rollout target: <90 days from kickoff)
• 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
• Serve as the primary technical relationship owner for your partners' data teams, running orientation calls, scoping sessions, and regular check-ins at the CTO/CMIO level
• Collaborate with the Product Data Science team to scope new workflow data requirements and ensure pipeline outputs support backtesting, production inference, and evaluation

• 7+ years as a data engineer or engineering leader, with experience building production data pipelines 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
• Data quality obsession — you build validation frameworks and monitoring, not just pipelines. You catch problems before the customer does.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science, Mathematics, or related technical field

• 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, or health system IT
• Experience with real-time data processing (HL7 feeds, FHIR subscriptions, streaming pipelines)

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

• 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
• Efficient troubleshooting with quick diagnosis and resolution of data quality issues

As a Director of Partner Integration at Qualified Health, you'll build the data infrastructure that powers AI-driven insights for major health systems. Your work directly enables better patient care by ensuring high-quality, reliable data flows into clinical decision support tools. This role offers deep technical learning in healthcare data, exposure to diverse health system architectures, and growth potential into senior technical or platform architecture roles as we scale.

• Mission that matters: We partner with the country's leading health systems to safely deploy AI that improves patient care, operational efficiency, and financial performance. Your work directly impacts clinical outcomes for millions of patients.
• Serious traction: 14+ health system partners including the University of Texas system, University of Rochester Medical Center and Jefferson Health — scaling to 100K+ users.
• Public Benefit Corporation: We're organized to prioritize patient outcomes alongside business performance. This isn't lip service — it's in our charter.
• Comp that competes: We offer market competitive base salary, meaningful equity with real upside, and comprehensive benefits. We are happy to offer flexible working hours and an inclusive environment that fosters creativity and innovation,
