Description: Lead Healthcare Integration Architect ? Medical Device Integration

Experience: 12?15 years (minimum 5 years in healthcare integration)

Location: Bengaluru / WFO

Role Type: Technical Leadership / Hands-on Architecture

Domain: Healthcare IT, Medical Device Integration, HIS/EMR Interoperability

Role Overview

We are looking for an experienced Lead Healthcare Integration Architect to spearhead our medical device integration initiatives within a large-scale digital healthcare transformation program. The individual will be responsible for defining the integration architecture, establishing interoperability standards, evaluating integration platforms, and leading the integration of medical and diagnostic devices with clinical applications, including HIS/EMR systems.

This is a hands-on technical leadership role requiring the ability to independently drive technical discovery, collaborate with medical device vendors and clinical stakeholders, and establish a scalable integration framework.

Key Responsibilities

- Integration Architecture & Strategy

- Design and establish an enterprise-wide medical device integration architecture supporting multiple healthcare applications and clinical workflows.
- Evaluate and recommend integration platforms, including Mirth Connect (NextGen Connect), and define reusable integration patterns.
- Establish integration standards for real-time and batch data exchange, transformation, validation, monitoring and error handling.
- Define an architecture that supports future expansion into FHIR-based interoperability and centralized clinical data repositories.

2. Medical Device Integration
- Lead technical discovery covering medical device capabilities, communication protocols, vendor APIs, SDKs and data formats.
- Design integration solutions for diagnostic equipment, laboratory analyzers, patient monitoring devices and other clinical devices.
- Work with device manufacturers and vendors to establish connectivity and data exchange requirements.
- Ensure accurate device-to-patient mapping, clinical data validation and integration with patient records.





3. HIS/EMR & Clinical Interoperability
- Define integration approaches between medical devices, integration middleware and HIS/EMR platforms.
- Establish interoperability using HL7 v2, FHIR, DICOM and proprietary protocols, as applicable.
- Collaborate with application teams to integrate device-generated clinical data into existing clinical workflows.
- Ensure alignment with clinical data standards, security requirements and applicable healthcare regulations.

4. Technical Leadership & Delivery
- Own the technical roadmap, integration architecture and implementation strategy.
- Lead proof-of-concept implementations and establish reusable integration components.
- Define technical specifications, effort estimates, resource requirements and implementation plans.
- Identify technical risks, external dependencies and integration challenges, and establish appropriate mitigation strategies.
- Provide technical leadership to integration developers, engineers and vendor teams as the integration practice expands.

Required Technical Skills

Skill Area

Requirements

Integration platforms

Solid hands-on experience with Mirth Connect (NextGen Connect) or equivalent healthcare integration engines

Healthcare interoperability

HL7 v2, HL7 FHIR, REST APIs and healthcare messaging standards

Medical device integration

Experience with device connectivity, vendor SDKs, proprietary protocols and medical device gateways

Clinical systems

Experience integrating with HIS, EMR/EHR, LIS or other clinical applications

Architecture

Enterprise integration architecture, API-led integration, event-driven architecture and middleware

Data management

Clinical data transformation, patient matching,



validation, audit trails and error handling

Security

Healthcare data security, encryption, access controls and applicable healthcare compliance requirements

Preferred Qualifications

- Bachelor?s or master?s degree in computer science, Engineering or a related discipline.
- 12?15 years of IT experience, including at least 5 years in healthcare interoperability or medical device integration.
- Proven experience architecting and delivering medical device integrations within hospitals, diagnostic networks or healthcare technology organizations.
- Experience with cloud-native integration architectures and Azure or AWS.
- Familiarity with ABDM interoperability requirements and healthcare data protection regulations.
- Prior experience establishing an integration team or leading an enterprise healthcare integration program.

Expected Outcomes ? First 90 Days

Timeline

Expected Deliverables

First 30 days

Complete device and vendor discovery, assess existing systems, define the target integration architecture and recommend the integration platform.

31?60 days

Establish integration standards, finalize technical specifications, execute a priority device integration proof of concept and define the implementation roadmap.

61?90 days

Establish reusable integration components, initiate priority integrations, implement monitoring and error-handling mechanisms, and finalize the integration team structure.

Key Success Criteria The individual will be accountable for establishing a scalable, secure and reusable medical device integration framework that minimizes point-to-point integrations, reduces dependency on individual device vendors and enables seamless clinical data exchange across the healthcare ecosystem.

Hiring priority: Candidates must have demonstrated, hands-on experience delivering medical device integrations. Experience limited to general enterprise API integration or HL7/FHIR implementation without exposure to medical devices will not be sufficient for this role.
