We read this from the posting text with AI. Skim the description below before ruling yourself out.
Why we read it this way (5)
The job title is 'Systems Administrator III' but the day-to-day work is primarily Epic application analysis, integration design, and configuration (Epic Bridges/HL7), which aligns more closely with Computer Systems Analysts (15-1211) than with systems administration (15-1244). The runner-up SOC is 15-1244, reflecting the title.
The minimum qualifications present an OR gate: 2+ years with Epic or comparable health system software OR 2+ years of scripting/programming experience — combined with a bachelor's degree and 3+ years in IT or operations (with equivalent experience accepted in lieu of the degree). Scripting is marked as a hard gate because it appears in the minimum qualifications block as one branch of that OR; Epic experience is listed under Preferred Qualifications.
All Epic-specific skills (Epic Bridges, HL7, Epic EMR) appear exclusively under Preferred Qualifications and are therefore not hard gates, despite being central to the role's description.
No compensation range is stated in the posting.
The role requires on-call, overnight, and weekend coverage.
