About the Opportunity
We are looking for QA / Validation Engineers to support testing and validation for a large-scale healthcare interface migration to Mirth Connect / NextGen Connect.
This role is focused on confirming that converted healthcare interfaces function correctly before cutover. The QA / Validation Engineer will develop and execute test plans, compare message output between legacy and converted interfaces, track defects, support UAT readiness, and maintain validation documentation.
This is a remote, U.S.-based contract opportunity expected to begin in early to mid-September 2026.
What You'll Do
• Develop and execute test plans for converted healthcare interfaces
• Validate HL7 message accuracy, structure, field-level output, routing, and transformation results
• Compare legacy interface output against converted Mirth Connect output to confirm expected behavior
• Identify, document, and track defects through resolution with engineering resources
• Support UAT coordination, readiness validation, and cutover preparation
• Validate X12 EDI transaction accuracy where applicable
• Maintain testing documentation, validation logs, defect notes, and audit-ready records
• Communicate testing status, open risks, blockers, and readiness concerns to delivery stakeholders
• Partner with engineers to clarify expected interface behavior and retest resolved issues
• Support regression testing and final validation activities prior to go-live
• Work in a fast-paced migration environment with multiple interfaces, deadlines, and testing priorities
What We're Looking For
• 3 or more years of QA, validation, or testing experience in healthcare IT, systems integration, or interface environments
• Familiarity with HL7 v2.x message structure and interface testing
• Experience validating interface engine output from tools such as Mirth Connect, Iguana, Rhapsody, Cloverleaf, or similar platforms
• Strong attention to detail and documentation discipline
• Ability to identify discrepancies in message output, mappings, transformations, and expected behavior
• Comfortable working in a migration, cutover, or go-live readiness environment
• Strong communication skills with the ability to report testing status and risks clearly
• Ability to work independently in a remote, fast-paced contract environment
Preferred Background
• Experience with Mirth Connect / NextGen Connect
• Experience with X12 EDI validation, including 837, 835, 270, and 271
• Background in healthcare revenue cycle, claims processing, payer systems, hospital systems, or healthcare IT
• Experience supporting large-scale interface migrations, UAT coordination, or production cutover validation
Contract Details
• Full-time contract role
• Remote, U.S.-based
• 12-week minimum engagement, with extension likely
• Anticipated start in early to mid-September 2026
• Multiple openings available
Why This Role Stands Out
This is a strong opportunity for a QA / Validation Engineer who understands healthcare interfaces and enjoys detailed testing work. The role offers exposure to a high-priority migration, HL7 validation, defect tracking, UAT support, and cutover readiness for a large healthcare integration environment.
Qualified candidates are encouraged to apply.
