Director, Solutions & Forward Deployed Engineering

Zus is a shared health data platform designed to accelerate healthcare data interoperability by providing easy-to-use patient data via API, embedded components, and direct EHR integrations. Founded in 2021 by Jonathan Bush, co-founder and former CEO of athenahealth, Zus partners with HIEs and other data networks to aggregate patient clinical history and then translates that history into user-friendly information at the point of care. Zus's mission is to catalyze healthcare's greatest inventors by maximizing the value of patient insights - so that they can build up, not around.

We are seeking a Director, Solution & Forward Deployed Engineering to lead the technical delivery of the Zus platform and help customers successfully connect their systems, data, and applications to Zus.
Reporting to the Head of Customer Success & Delivery, this role will own how customers integrate with the Zus platform. They’ll be responsible for ensuring healthcare organizations and digital health builders can reliably ingest data, connect EHR systems, and deploy applications powered by Zus APIs.

This leader will oversee teams responsible for forward deployment engineering, and technical enablement, working closely with customer engineering teams to integrate Zus into production environments and connect to data networks. You will guide customers through the complexity of healthcare interoperability, helping them translate real-world workflows into scalable integrations built on Zus.

This is a hands-on player-coach role. You will lead the team while also personally engaging in complex implementations, architecture discussions, and customer deployments. You will champion the use of AI tools, automation frameworks, and reusable integration patterns to dramatically improve how quickly and reliably customers connect to the Zus platform.
The ideal candidate combines deep experience in healthcare interoperability, enterprise software implementations, API platforms, and AI-enabled engineering workflows with the leadership skills required to scale a delivery organization.

We will offer you…

• Competitive compensation that reflects the value you bring to the team a combination of cash and equity

• Robust benefits that include health insurance, wellness benefits, 401k with a match, unlimited PTO

• Opportunity to work alongside a passionate team that is determined to help change the world (and have fun doing it)

Please Note: Research shows that candidates from underrepresented backgrounds often don’t apply unless they meet 100% of the job criteria. While we have worked to consolidate the minimum qualifications for each role, we aren’t looking for someone who checks each box on a page; we’re looking for active learners and people who care about disrupting the current healthcare system with their unique experiences.

We do not conduct interviews by text nor will we send you a job offer unless you've interviewed with multiple people, including the Director of People & Talent, over video interviews. Job scams do exist so please be careful with your personal information.
