What is the primary need, technical challenge, and/or problem you will be responsible for?

As a Software Engineer focused on solving interoperability issues in the healthcare and clinical trial industry, you will be responsible for various technical tasks to ensure compliance and streamline data exchange between different systems.Here are some of the key tasks you may undertake:

1. System Integration: Design and develop software solutions to enable seamless integration between various healthcare and clinical trial systems, such as electronic health record (EHR) systems, laboratory information management systems (LIMS), clinical trial management systems (CTMS), etc. This may involve building robust APIs, data mapping, data transformation, and implementing secure data exchange protocols.
2. Data Security and Privacy: Implement appropriate security measures to protect sensitive patient and trial data during transit and storage. Employ encryption, access controls, and other security best practices to ensure data privacy and comply with regulatory requirements.
3. Data Validation and Quality Assurance: Develop mechanisms to validate the integrity, accuracy, and completeness of exchanged data. Implement data validation rules and perform thorough testing to ensure the reliability and quality of the data being transmitted between systems.
4. Performance Optimization: Identify performance bottlenecks and optimize data exchange processes to ensure fast and efficient interoperability. Conduct load testing and performance tuning to handle large data volumes and minimize latency.
5. Documentation and Reporting: Maintain detailed documentation of the interoperability architecture, integration workflows, and data mapping rules. Generate reports and provide updates on the status of interoperability initiatives to stakeholders and regulatory bodies as required.
6. Collaboration and Communication: Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, including product managers, domain experts, compliance officers, and external partners, to ensure alignment and effective resolution of interoperability challenges.Communicate technical requirements, progress, and roadblocks to relevant stakeholders in a clear and concise manner.
7. Continuous Improvement: Stay abreast of emerging technologies, industry trends, and best practices in healthcare and clinical trial interoperability. Continuously evaluate and suggest improvements to existing systems, processes, and standards to enhance data exchange efficiency and compliance.
   
   

Success in the Role: What are the performance goals over the first 6-12 months you will work toward completing?

We define performance and career growth in the following bucket of competencies:

1. Problem Solving : Defines how one is able to
   
   -Understand and define the problem statement clearly
   -Identify the cause of the problem
   -Break down to smaller problems
   -Coming up with multiple solutions and being able to figure out pros and cons
   
   
2. Coding : Defines how one is able to
   
   -Code effectively(Readable, abstract, Modular, Extensible, Simple, debuggable, Functionally correct code with proper boundary conditions , exception handling covered) considering the best industry practises as per the programming language
   -Perform effective code reviews
   -Code with proper constructs (DS, Algo, choice of programming flow)
   
   
3. Architecture & Design
   
   -Software architecture refers to being able to create a high level structure of a software system without getting into the details of implementation. Based on the product requirement able to deduce the technical implication of the same. Identifying the right components, interactions amongst themselves. It encompasses both the product as well as deployment architecture. Sample tools used to express HLD: sequence diagram, data flow diagram, component diagram,
   state charts.
   -Software design refers to the first phase of the software cycle dealing with implementation. It's the ability to apply the right software design pattern to the proposed solution, define the interfaces for above identified components for the interaction and make them reusable. Defining APIs with the clear payload, it lays out roles and responsibility details at every component level. Sample tools used to express LLD: UML, flow chart
   
   
4. Execution
   
   -Planning, Estimating, Establishing working relationship with different stakeholders for the release
   -Create adequate documentation for all the stakeholders as well as define & callout dependencies & contract/API needed
   -Propose inputs for efficient approaches to deliver the product within well defined constraints
   -Story & Requirement grooming with appropriate stakeholders
   -Provide all relevant inputs for task tracking and visibility like updating project management tools and moving them to right statuses
   
   
5. Quality
   
   -Take ownership of ensuring the deliverable is of the best qualityDesign, Coding, Reviews
   -Code quality should be of best quality. Should take care of reusability, modularity,scalability, performance, exception handling,general coding standards. Reviewer should ensure due diligence. No po review comments.
   -Ensure Unit test cases are written with 100% coverage where framework is available.
   -Bug free code : Requirements are covered, impact analysis, minimal bugs in when code is pushed to stage, 0 bugs in production. No Sev 0 defects in UAT. No bugs in production.
   -Design should ensure proper impact analysis is done. Should take care of scalability, performance.
   
   
6. Communication
   
   -Covers written, verbal, interpersonal communication which helps to bring out risks earlier and follow up and mitigate the risks identified and helps building a stellar team
   -Passing on the information to the right stakeholders at the right time in the right format through right channel
   
   
7. Operational Excellence : It is a mindset and culture focused on reducing risk, complexity and cost while improving process safety, sustainability and productivity.
    
   -Feature Rollout/Rollback Strategy
   -Work with QA to define smoke tests for feature rollout
   -Ability to plan needed capacity(storage & compute) and call it out during design phase to ensure consistent performance
   -Giving/Getting code reviews with appropriate stakeholders and incorporating code review comments(security,performance,functional etc.)
   -Triaging production issues and filing postmortem reports with RCA
   -Add appropriate monitors,alerts & alarms (Sensu, NewRelic,Loki etc.) to ensure we can meet our committed SLA. This could be an existing system or new.
   -Propose,Educate & Promote process changes to improve quality of development & release
   -Test Automation during the CI process and ensuring quality of deliverable upstream
   -Go through all the security guidelines provided and ensure they are implemented in the day to day work.
