Job Duties

Participate in the Epic build life cycle: requirements gathering, design, configuration, testing, go‑live readiness, cut‑over, hyper‑care and optimization.

Design, configure, maintain and document security templates, user roles, provider (SER) records, security classes, access groups and associated governance structures such as shared templates, role‑based access models, provider blueprints, and de‑roll templates.

Collaborate with clinical functional leads (nursing, pharmacy, respiratory care, imaging, ancillary services) to understand workflow/security intersections, translate access requirements, and validate role configurations.

Coordinate with the change control process, audit teams and IAM/provisioning teams to ensure user provisioning, de‑provisioning, role changes and cross‑module access are aligned with the security build.

Lead or support a security workgroup (e.g., Epic Security Workgroup) that meets regularly to review build progress, template issues, cross‑application impacts and governance decisions.

Conduct access reviews, audits of roles/templates, proactively identify over‑permissioned accounts or segregation of duties issues, and remediate as needed.

On go‑lives or major upgrades, support security readiness: test user accounts, shadow charting, login labs, personalization labs, and coordinate with training teams.

Maintain documentation: security build guides, standard operating procedures (SOPs), user‑access workflows, audit logs and versioning of templates/roles.

Serve as a liaison between the Epic team, the enterprise IT/cybersecurity team, compliance/privacy, and clinical operations—ensuring security build aligns with enterprise IAM strategy and regulatory requirements (HIPAA, HITECH, etc.).

Monitor emerging security threats relevant to EHR systems, ensuring that Epic build and access models reflect best practices and evolving regulatory/security standards.

Qualifications

Education:

Bachelor’s degree in Health Informatics, Information Systems, Computer Science, Cybersecurity or related field (equivalent experience accepted).

Experience:

3–5 years (or more) in healthcare IT supporting EHR systems, with at least 2–3 years focused on Epic security, user‑access, roles/templates.

Experience with Epic build and security modules (user security, provider security, SER records) or analogous EHR system.

Healthcare/hospital environment experience preferred—collaborating with clinical/operational stakeholders.

Skills and Certifications:

Strong knowledge of role‑based access control (RBAC), identity & access management, least‑privilege models, user provisioning/de‑provisioning workflows.

Familiarity with relevant standards/regulations: HIPAA, HITECH, NIST (or equivalent), healthcare audit/compliance frameworks.

Excellent communication skills (verbal and written); ability to translate technical access/security issues into clinical/business terms and partner with stakeholders across functional areas.

Ability to lead or coordinate workgroups/meetings, track deliverables, elevate issues, manage dependencies in a large hospital or health‑system environment.

Preferred: Epic certification in Security (Security Fundamentals, Security Administration, Data Courier) and/or security certifications (CISSP, CISM, HCISPP) though not always required.

Working Conditions & Other Considerations Typical hours: Monday–Friday, day shift; may require occasional evenings/weekends during go‑lives, hyper‑care, upgrades or major patches.

On‑call availability for access/security incidents may be required.

Hybrid work possible, but must be on-site for build workshops, go‑lives, and coordination with clinical teams.

Must maintain confidentiality and integrity when working with protected health information (PHI) and sensitive user‑access data.

Metrics of Success

Role/design errors minimized in go‑lives (fewer access incidents or over‑permissions).

Timely provisioning/de‑provisioning aligned with HR/clinical changes.

Audit/Review processes executed on schedule and corrective actions tracked.

Templates and roles maintained, documented, and version‑controlled.

Stakeholder satisfaction (clinical, IT, compliance) with access model and security governance.

Compensation $95,000‑130,000 per year (salary commensurate with experience within posted range).

Benefits We provide a comprehensive benefits package, including competitive medical, dental, and vision plans. We prioritize work‑life balance with a generous time‑off policy that includes ample vacation days, personal time, sick leave, and nine paid holidays. Additionally, we are committed to the personal and professional growth of our employees, offering robust tuition reimbursement and continuing education programs to support ongoing development.
