About the Opportunity
We are looking for Conversion Engineers to support a large-scale healthcare interface migration from a legacy integration engine to Mirth Connect / NextGen Connect.
This role is focused on hands-on interface conversion, channel buildout, message validation, troubleshooting, and documentation. The right person will have healthcare interface engineering experience, working knowledge of HL7, and the ability to execute assigned conversions within a structured migration plan.
This is a remote, U.S.-based contract opportunity expected to begin in early to mid-September 2026.
What You'll Do
- Convert existing healthcare interface channels from a legacy integration platform to Mirth Connect / NextGen Connect
- Build, configure, and test interface channels using established migration standards and templates
- Validate message mappings, transformation logic, routing rules, and expected interface behavior
- Compare legacy interface logic against converted Mirth Connect output to confirm accuracy
- Troubleshoot conversion issues, message discrepancies, mapping problems, and testing defects
- Collaborate with senior engineers on shared frameworks, reusable code, technical questions, and escalations
- Support healthcare X12 EDI interface conversion where applicable
- Document conversion notes, assumptions, testing outcomes, and unresolved issues for assigned interfaces
- Participate in testing, cutover support, migration readiness, and go-live activities as assigned
- Work independently on assigned conversion tasks while coordinating with engineering and QA teams
- Communicate progress, blockers, risks, and technical questions clearly to project stakeholders
What We're Looking For
- 3 or more years of healthcare integration or interface engineering experience
- Working experience with Mirth Connect / NextGen Connect
- Solid understanding of HL7 v2.x message structure and common healthcare interface workflows
- JavaScript and/or Lua scripting experience
- Ability to read, understand, and convert existing interface logic
- Strong troubleshooting skills and attention to detail
- Ability to work independently within a fast-paced migration timeline
- Strong documentation habits and clear communication skills
- Comfortable working remotely with a distributed project team
Preferred Background
- Familiarity with Interfaceware Iguana
- Experience with X12 EDI claims transactions, including 837, 835, 270, and 271
- Prior experience on an interface engine migration, platform conversion, or healthcare integration modernization project
- Experience in a hospital system, revenue cycle management, payer, claims, or healthcare IT environment
Contract Details
- Full-time contract role
- Remote, U.S.-based
- 12-week minimum engagement, with extension likely
- Anticipated start in early to mid-September 2026
- Multiple openings available
Why This Role Stands Out
This is a strong opportunity for a healthcare integration engineer who wants to contribute to a major interface migration project. The role offers hands-on Mirth Connect conversion work, HL7 validation, troubleshooting, cutover support, and collaboration with senior technical resources on a high-priority healthcare technology initiative.
