[Hiring] Senior Integration Engineer @DRFIRST COM INC

Role Description

DrFirst seeks a Senior Integration Engineer to join our Professional Services integration engineering team. You will build and support vendor and customer integrations across payers, hospitals, health systems, and EMR/EHR platforms. You will help design the next generation of how healthcare organizations connect with our medication management solutions, and you will turn month-long implementations into streamlined experiences for customers and internal teams.

A core part of this role supports our electronic prior authorization (ePA) platform through direct payer integrations. You will scale payer connectivity and ePA workflows, and you will own both the technical execution and the business relationships with payer partners. You will partner with Product to turn complex payer workflows into reliable, repeatable integration capabilities, and you will build the processes and SOPs our team needs as payer connectivity grows.

You will also build self-service tools for tech-forward customers and automation to move integrations faster, all while you maintain enterprise-grade security and compliance. Your work shapes how quickly customers go live and how reliably the healthcare professionals who use our solutions get what they need.
