Systems Interface Designer

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in United States.

📋 Description

• Lead a recurring, cross-functional technical working group that supports the planning for OCI migration, interface readiness, testing, and cutover activities.

• Act as the main coordination point among engineering teams, product owners, program management offices, vendors, and external stakeholders involved with MHS GENESIS boundary or B-side systems.

• Define and articulate the roles, responsibilities, dependencies, milestones, and completion criteria for assigned interfaces and boundary systems.

• Create and maintain integrated interface plans, schedules, readiness criteria, action items, risks, issues, and dependencies across both production and non-production environments.

• Prioritize and coordinate testing, connectivity verification, interface validation, and operational readiness activities in preparation for OCI migration and cutover events.

• Evaluate existing interfaces and integration dependencies to pinpoint migration impacts, technical gaps, compatibility issues, and potential risks to system interoperability.

• Develop, review, and maintain Interface Control Documents, interface design specifications, data-flow diagrams, technical requirements, configuration documentation, and operational runbooks.

• Ensure that interface documentation accurately reflects source and target systems, data elements, message flows, connectivity requirements, transformation rules, security requirements, error-handling procedures, and operational dependencies.

• Oversee interface design, configuration, implementation, testing, deployment, and post-deployment validation activities throughout the migration lifecycle.

• Assist in the development and execution of interface test plans, validation procedures, defect-management processes, and production-readiness assessments.

• Analyze test results and technical issues, facilitate defect triage, and coordinate corrective actions with development, infrastructure, cybersecurity, database, application, and vendor teams.

• Confirm that interfaces and boundary systems satisfy established technical, performance, security, availability, and operational readiness requirements prior to deployment.

• Aid in cutover planning, including interface sequencing, implementation procedures, rollback plans, production verification, and post-cutover stabilization activities.

• Provide technical input during architecture reviews, design reviews, technical interchange meetings, configuration management boards, and migration readiness reviews.

• Translate complex technical requirements, system dependencies, and migration impacts into clear, actionable information for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Collaborate with product owners, systems engineers, solution architects, cloud engineers, developers, testers, cybersecurity personnel, and subject matter experts to tackle interface and integration challenges.

• Operate within an Agile engineering environment, providing regular status updates, technical recommendations, risk assessments, and decision-support information to program leadership.

• Promote consistent interface engineering practices, documentation standards, validation methods, and configuration management processes across all participating teams.

• Support the sustainment and ongoing improvement of interfaces post-deployment, including troubleshooting, performance monitoring, root-cause analysis, and implementation of corrective actions.

⛳️ Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Systems Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, Health Informatics, or a related field, accompanied by 8–12 years of relevant experience.

• A minimum of five years of recent experience leading systems integration, interface engineering, cloud migration, technical delivery, or full-lifecycle system implementation efforts.

• Must be a U.S. citizen with an active ADP/IT-II Public Trust clearance based on a minimum Tier 3 investigation.

• Proven experience in coordinating complex technical activities across multiple engineering teams, vendors, government organizations, and program stakeholders.

• Background in supporting cloud migration initiatives, including assessment, planning, design, testing, cutover, validation, and post-deployment stabilization.

• Experience in designing, documenting, implementing, testing, or maintaining interfaces between complex enterprise systems.

• Skilled in developing and maintaining Interface Control Documents, interface specifications, system diagrams, integration plans, test documentation, and technical requirements.

• Experience conducting interface, connectivity, interoperability, or end-to-end validation in both production and non-production environments.

• Working knowledge of systems engineering, systems integration, configuration management, requirements management, verification and validation, and risk management practices.

• Ability to analyze complex technical dependencies, identify risks and gaps, develop mitigation strategies, and drive issues to resolution.
