ADDITIONAL DUTIES:
- Design, build, and maintain real-time HL7/FHIR interfaces that feed CBC and demographic data from the LIS to LGI-Flag and return risk scores/flags to clinician worklists.
- Configure and validate data-mapping rules (e.g., Hgb, RBC indices, age, sex) required by LGI-Flag; implement QC checkpoints to guarantee data integrity before algorithm execution.
- Execute and document IQ/OQ/PQ testing of LGI-Flag outputs, supplying evidence for CLIA, CAP and FDA SaMD compliance audits.
- Monitor daily algorithm runs, investigate interface exceptions, and fine-tune threshold parameters to balance sensitivity and specificity for disorder detection.
- Develop user dashboards and training materials that explain LGI-Flag scoring tiers, clinical actionability, and workflow impact for laboratory and gastroenterology teams.
- Track performance metrics (PPV, NPV, flag rates) post-go-live and propose algorithm or workflow adjustments to drive continuous improvement.
EQUIPMENT:
Standard office equipment.
WORK SCHEDULE:
Monday through Friday, occasional weekends and holidays as needed.
