Benefits Systems Manager - Healthcare jobs in Louisville, KY

Job description

J2 Interactive is looking for qualified candidates to help us provide systems engineering, administration and support to our various clients. You can think of this job as a combination of hardware/systems architect, systems administrator, and DBA. It requires the kind of foresight, reliability, responsiveness, and dedication that you'd expect in someone whose responsibilities include making sure systems run smoothly and without interruption. But the right people for this job will also bring creativity, problem-solving ability, and a knack for developing and communicating architectural proposals to both a technical and non-technical audience.

Most of our work is in the healthcare space, particularly with the InterSystems technology stack (Caché, Ensemble, HealthShare and TrakCare). So if you have experience deploying and administering those products, we welcome you to apply. Candidates who have administered systems for Caché-based healthcare applications like Epic or GE Centricity are also an ideal fit. At the OS level, most of our clients are on Unix, with AIX and various flavors of Linux the most popular choices. If you are a pure Microsoft person, this position is less likely to be a fit for you.  We are specifically looking for individuals who have Cloud systems deployment experience (AWS preferrably).

We generally do a good job of keeping travel to a minimum for our employees, and this is especially true for our systems engineering group. We don't do any physical installation of hardware and network infrastructure, so we do all of our work remotely and travel only when there is a strategic need (such as a joint planning/architecture session). That said, there is a growing demand among our customers for off-hours support, and therefore our systems group needs to work together to provide off-hours coverage for certain accounts. Building redundancy in our systems group is a key part of our strategy for work/life balance; in other words, we won't set you up to be the only person who knows a particular customer's systems. There will always be someone else on the team to cover for you when you're taking time off.

Though our headquarters is located in Charlestown (Boston), MA, this is a telecommuting position open to anyone who's eligible to work in the US. 

Candidates must be willing to submit to a background check. No recruiters or third party solicitations please.

Desired Skills and Experience

The most important qualities we're looking for are:

• 3 years of experience as a systems engineer/administrator in a healthcare environment, including management of InterSystems (Caché)-based applications
• Expertise in at least one major Unix operating system (Linux and AIX preferred)
• Experience with Cloud systems deployment (Azure, AWS, GCP)
• At least 1 Associate Level Cloud Certification
• Experience planning, configuring, and managing high-availability and disaster recovery solutions at both the OS and database level
• Experience using VMWare VSphere to create, manage, and monitor guest systems
• Excellent written and oral communication skills; thoughtful and proactive communication to teammates, clients, and third parties
• Ability to work directly with technical and non-technical management (including customers as well as software and hardware vendors)
• Uncompromising dedication to quality, security, reliability, scalability, and all that other good stuff

Other experience that would be desirable, but not strictly necessary:

• Healthcare integration or development projects (particularly HL7/C-CDA integration)
• Networking and security protocols and troubleshooting (VPN, SSL, etc.)
• Experience with Azure SQL Data Warehouse and/or Synapse
• Storage systems and large databases
• Familiarity with agile development methodologies
  
  

Company Description

 J2 Interactive is an award-winning software development and IT consulting firm specializing in customized solutions for hospitals, labs, research institutions, and health information exchanges. Our approach to design and development is rooted in a fundamental belief that systems succeed or fail based on how well they serve the people who depend upon them. For our clients in the healthcare industry, that includes doctors, nurses, technicians, and administrative staff ... but ultimately, it means patients and their families.

At J2 we get a lot of satisfaction out of helping our customers succeed, and we want people with that same commitment to getting the job done right. We’re not afraid to give people the responsibility of working directly with clients, defining project specs, and choosing implementation strategies. Our casual work environment and telecommuting options give our staff a high quality of life to go along with the technical and creative challenges of the work itself.

Generally speaking, we are looking to hire full-time, salaried employees but are open to independent consultants as well.  If you're a freelancer and want to stay that way, we're open to it as long as we can get a stable, predictable full-time commitment from you.

Benefits

• The ability to telecommute from your home office
• Aggressive employee profit-sharing program
