This is your opportunity to do the most meaningful work of your career—enabling better care and healthier communities across Australia and New Zealand.

What you'll achieve

In this role, you'll be at the heart of our ORBIS EMR implementation, applying your technical expertise to configure and optimise one of the world's most advanced clinical systems.

As a Technical Configuration Specialist, your expertise will be central to the successful implementation and optimisation of the ORBIS EMR system across Australia and New Zealand. Your day-to-day work will involve deep technical configuration, scripting, integration, and collaboration across cross-functional teams.

You will:

• Contribute to the technical configuration workstream within the ORBIS EMR implementation program for the ANZ region.
• Design, customise, and implement ORBIS system configurations—such as templates, forms, workflows, and business rules—to meet clinical and operational requirements.
• Apply scripting (JavaScript, SQL, Arden Syntax) and ORBIS-specific tools to define system logic, automate behaviours, and support clinical decision-making.
• Configure integration interfaces and manage data transformation pipelines using HL7 and FHIR standards.
• Ensure configuration governance through proper version control, documentation, and change management processes aligned with Dedalus global and regional standards.
• Support data migration activities through data mapping, validation routines, and bulk import processes.
• Participate in system testing phases including User Acceptance Testing (UAT), defect resolution, and deployment readiness activities.
• Contribute to clinical safety and quality assurance by ensuring all configurations align with patient safety goals and governance frameworks.
• Promote DevOps and configuration automation practices to improve delivery efficiency, scalability, and consistency.
