My role as the lead entails managing a team of Integration engineers, that build out Mirth and Pentaho Data Integration (Kettle) servers on cloud-based (AWS) Linux instances. We construct interfaces to process real time and batch HL7 (v2 and v3), CCR, CSV/fixed text, JSON, XML, Web Services, DIRECT messages, and CCLF clinical data feeds. Clinical, claims, and business data are integrated from more than 200 practices, dozens of EHR vendors, and several HIEs and Hospitals. I partner with, product owners, project managers, vendors and resellers to continuously improve our integration strategy and augment our data acquisition capabilities. This is a mission critical role to source real time practice and hospital clinical, appointment and billing data, in order to provide a comprehensive view of our patient care life-cycles. Leverage Agile methodology using JIRA to manage Scrum based project delivery. Also participate in the Data Architecture team to roll out new OLTP and downstream Warehouse schema updates, servicing micro-services architecture based web applications. Application Engineer/Data Architect (Nov 2015 – Oct 2016) Leidos Inc. Publicly held; 100**-***** employees, Fed IT services Lead team efforts to benchmark the performance of DoD healthcare applications to be integrated with the existing AHLTA application (HL7 messaging framework) suite. These are complex web-tier data provisioning applications that leverage the open source NwHIN & HL7 framework protocols. The customer is the DHCS’s (a DoD Agency) Capacity and Performance Management (CPM) team, the goal to identify performance issues with currently (and near future) deployed DoD healthcare applications.

As a result of these efforts there has been an order of magnitude improvement in the throughput and response time of critical DoD healthcare applications such as VLER, BHIE and TBI/BH, allowing them to meet target SLAs. Also participated occasionally as a key developer in an Agile Scrum Team to debug, develop & test several database defects logged against production databases that are deployed at MHS facilities worldwide. Leveraged tools such as SoapUI, LoadUI, LoadRunner, etc. to load/stress test the REST/SOAP Web interfaces of key applications. Also developed custom test tools for healthcare applications, using Linux shell scripting, Perl, Awk and PL/SQL. Leveraged the Microsoft Integration Services platform for building data integration and data transformations solutions. Used Integration Services to solve business problems by copying or downloading files, sending e-mail messages in response to events, updating data warehouses, cleaning and mining data, and managing SQL Server objects and data.
