Technical Onboarding Specialist & Vendor Advocate (Health-Tech / Digital Health)

Posted 3 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

We are a stealth-stage digital diagnostic platform managing frontend patient acquisition, programmatic clinical authorization, and cash-cleared transactions. We have our overall architecture mapped and have selected our primary vendor stack across lab aggregation, imaging networks, and clinical oversight. We are seeking a sharp, highly technical operator to open doors, bypass administrative stalls, and shepherd our vendor integrations through to live API deployment. You will act as our operational advocate - unlocking technical channels, navigating compliance/security surveys, and staying on guard throughout the technical onboarding process while leadership manages the overarching legal and commercial agreements. **Core Responsibilities:** * Act as our operational advocate to re-engage stalled vendor threads across diagnostic labs, imaging networks, and telehealth networks. * Utilize tactical multi-threading and personal/industry networks to identify and reach technical decision-makers (VPs of Engineering, Implementation Directors) when standard channels stall. * Guide and manage standard health-tech compliance surveys and security reviews to unblock API provisioning. * Stand guard over the technical onboarding workflow, ensuring sandbox and production API keys are issued and validated by our engineering team. **Required Experience & Skills:** * Industry Network & Door-Opening Knack: A proven ability (or existing network) to identify key decision-makers, bypass gatekeepers, and leverage creative outreach to get vendors engaged and moving fast. * Technical Literacy: Strong understanding of API architecture, webhooks, HL7 data flows, and healthcare B2B onboarding dynamics (no coding required). * Healthcare Experience: Prior experience working within an EHR company, digital health startup, specialty lab network, or telehealth platform. * Relentless Operational Advocacy: Exceptional communication and escalation skills - you do not let technical projects languish in administrative queues. **Compensation Structure (Milestone-Driven):** This role is highly outcome-driven to align incentives: * Baseline: Hourly rate capped strictly at 3–5 hours per week to cover active communication, follow-ups, and administrative updates. * Bounty: A flat milestone bonus ($200–$300 per vendor) paid immediately upon successfully securing full production API access and technical sign-off for each specific partner. **To Apply:** Please submit a brief message outlining a specific time you had to bypass a gatekeeper or unblock a stalled B2B vendor integration in the healthcare space.
