Job opportunity for an Interim Integration Engineer in Bath
Your new company
Join a forward-thinking organisation at the forefront of healthcare transformation, delivering large-scale, data-driven programmes that enable safer, more connected patient care. Working within a complex, multi-supplier environment, you’ll contribute to building a modern, interoperable healthcare ecosystem, collaborating with clinical experts, architects, and leading technology partners.
Your new role
As an Integration Engineer specialising in InterSystems HealthShare and SDA3, you will play a pivotal role in designing, building, and operating robust healthcare integrations. Acting as a key contributor to the integration layer, you will ensure accurate, safe, and efficient data exchange across multiple clinical systems.
You’ll lead on mapping source systems into HealthShare’s SDA3 canonical model, supporting both real-time interoperability and large-scale data migration or synchronisation programmes. From inbound message processing and transformation to outbound mappings and orchestration, you will ensure semantic integrity and clinical safety are embedded throughout the integration lifecycle.
Key activities will include:
Designing and developing integrations using InterSystems HealthShare as a central orchestration platform
Mapping, transforming, and validating healthcare data into SDA3, including bespoke extensions where required
Implementing interfaces using HL7 v2, FHIR, XML, JSON, and APIs
Developing routing, transformation, deduplication, and conflict-resolution logic
Supporting near real-time and bi-directional data exchange across complex system landscapes
Ensuring data quality, auditability, and compliance with clinical safety standards (including DCB0129)
Collaborating closely with clinical SMEs, data architects, and external vendors
Contributing to design documentation, interface specifications, and testing phases across the delivery lifecycle
What you'll need to succeed
To be successful in this role, you’ll bring a strong mix of technical expertise, healthcare domain knowledge, and problem-solving capability.
Essential:
Proven hands-on experience with InterSystems HealthShare, including SDA3
Strong experience mapping healthcare data into canonical models (particularly SDA3)
Experience extending SDA3 to meet programme-specific requirements
Proficiency in ObjectScript or similar HealthShare technologies
Solid understanding of healthcare messaging standards: HL7 v2, FHIR, XML, JSON
Experience designing integration patterns such as pub/sub, orchestration, and request-response
Strong understanding of healthcare data domains (demographics, encounters, medications, etc.)
Experience ensuring semantic alignment, not just structural mapping
Background working on complex healthcare programmes (e.g., NHS or equivalent environments)
Ability to navigate multi-supplier and vendor-heavy delivery environments
Desirable:
Experience using HealthShare for data migration and persistence
Knowledge of SNOMED CT or other clinical terminologies
Experience supporting live, business-critical integrations
Understanding of non-functional requirements such as performance, resilience, and security
What you'll get in return
Opportunity to work on high-impact healthcare programmes that directly improve patient outcomes
Exposure to cutting-edge interoperability and data integration challenges
Collaborative environment with leading technical and clinical experts
Strong focus on professional growth and continuous learning
Competitive salary and benefits package (depending on experience)
Flexible working arrangements (where applicable)
