Senior Clinical Data Operations Analyst III at R1Rcm
Remote, United States — full-time
R1 is the leading provider of technology-driven solutions that transform the patient experience and financial performance of hospitals, health systems, and medical groups. We are the one company that combines the deep expertise of a global workforce of revenue cycle professionals with the industry’s most advanced technology platform, encompassing sophisticated analytics, AI, intelligent automation, and workflow orchestration. The Clinical Data Operations Analyst III is a core technical contributor on the PhareOS Implementation team, responsible for validating and troubleshooting the clinical data that powers PhareOS across HL7, FHIR, and standardized Databricks/dbt pipelines. This role lives at the intersection of raw source data, transformation logic, and downstream product readiness: running SQL-based validation, tracing HL7-to-FHIR transformations end to end, and partnering with engineering, product, clinical, and vendor teams to keep client data accurate, complete, and production-ready. It's hands-on, detective-style work at the center of one of the fastest-growing platforms in healthcare AI, with direct visibility into how clean clinical data translates into measurable outcomes for some of the largest health systems in the country. This position must communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders and thrives on solving problems others haven't found yet. Essential Responsibilities Serve as a front-line data detective for PhareOS: execute SQL-based validation of HL7, FHIR, and batch healthcare data across every layer of the pipeline, from raw source through standardized tables. Hunt down and resolve data quality issues — missing records, null propagation, duplicate records, incorrect mappings, and inconsistent relationships — before they ever reach a client or a downstream product. Trace the full journey of clinical data: review raw source messages, HL7-to-FHIR Bundle transformations, and standardized tables to pinpoint source availability gaps and transformation accuracy issues. Partner directly with engineering to support and refine dbt models and mapping logic that power PhareOS’s clinical data layer. Validate HL7 and FHIR message processing across critical clinical fields — event codes, patient class, discharge disposition, payer, diagnosis, procedure, and DRG — ensuring the data driving PhareOS is clinically sound. Build Databricks SQL queries and notebooks to power validation, field-level research, production triage, and go-live readiness for new and existing clients. Document validation results, mapping assumptions, known limitations, and recommended remediation paths that both technical and non-technical stakeholders can act on. Be the connective tissue between engineering, product, clinical, and vendor teams — showing up with clear data evidence and reproducible examples instead of vague symptoms. Monitor and investigate client-specific data discrepancies in production, and validate fixes to confirm the issu
