A core aspect of the role is ensuring seamless health data interoperability using HL7 FHIR standards and enabling secure, high-volume health information exchange.

Requirements

Key Responsibilities

System Architecture & Design

• Design scalable, secure, and high-performance repositories for national disease registries (e.g., Cancer, Diabetes, CKD) and longitudinal screening programs.
• Define system architectures that support large-scale population health data and long-term clinical data storage.

Interoperability & Standards Leadership

• Lead the definition and adoption of HL7 FHIR (R4/R5) profiles, implementation guides, and RESTful APIs for interoperable data exchange.
• Ensure consistent use of healthcare interoperability standards across systems and stakeholders.

Foundational Registry Architecture

• Architect core healthcare registries, including:
• Patient / Client Registry (MPI)
• Health Provider Registry
• Master Facility List and Services Registry
• Ensure accurate identity management and unique identification across the health ecosystem.

Data Modeling & Transformation

• Map and transform legacy clinical data formats into standardized FHIR resources.
• Enable cross-platform and cross-system data exchange through standardized data models.

Security, Privacy & Compliance

• Embed Privacy by Design principles across all architectures.
• Ensure compliance with national health data regulations and global standards (e.g., HIPAA/GDPR equivalents).
• Implement secure authentication and authorization using OAuth2, OpenID Connect, and encryption standards.

Stakeholder Collaboration

• Act as the technical interface between public health authorities, clinical subject matter experts, and engineering teams.
• Translate policy, regulatory, and clinical requirements into scalable technical solutions.

Architecture Governance & Documentation

• Produce and maintain comprehensive architecture documentation, including system diagrams, standards, and integration specifications.
• Deliver complete architecture blueprints covering end-to-end system design.

Technical Skills & Qualifications

• Healthcare Interoperability Standards: Deep expertise in HL7 FHIR (R4/R5), HL7 v2, and DICOM.
• Clinical Terminologies: Strong experience integrating SNOMED-CT, LOINC, and ICD-10/11.
• Architecture Frameworks: Hands-on experience with TOGAF, IndEA, or similar enterprise architecture frameworks; strong understanding of Health Information Exchange (HIE) patterns.
• Infrastructure: Solid experience designing and implementing on-premise architectures.
• Data Engineering: Familiarity with big data technologies for population health analytics and longitudinal data processing.

Experience Requirements

• 7+ years of experience in software or solution architecture, with at least 3+ years in digital health or healthcare platforms.
• Proven experience delivering large-scale data platforms or national-level e-health initiatives.
• Hands-on experience designing and implementing population screening programs (e.g., cancer screening, newborn screening) with complex workflow tracking requirements.
