About The Position

This role focuses on modernizing EDI transaction processing by migrating from Edifecs to Azure. The developer will be responsible for designing, building, and implementing EDI pipelines on Azure to replace existing Edifixe-based workflows. This includes re-platforming mapping, validation, and transformation rules, and owning the end-to-end development for core healthcare transaction sets. The role also involves collaborating with various teams, troubleshooting issues, and documenting specifications. A key aspect of this role is leveraging AI/GenAI tooling to accelerate the migration process.

Requirements

• 5+ years hands-on experience with X12 EDI transactions in a healthcare payer or clearinghouse environment (834, 278, 270/271, 835, 837 mandatory).
• Working knowledge of Edifecs components (XEngine, Transaction Manager, SpecBuilder, or similar) and experience migrating off a legacy EDI platform.
• Practical development experience on Azure integration services: Logic Apps, Azure Functions, API Management, Service Bus/Event Grid, Azure Integration Account (X12 schemas/agreements).
• Proficiency in C#/.NET or Python for custom transformation and validation logic.
• Familiarity with companion guides, HIPAA 5010 implementation guides, and trading-partner onboarding.
• Must have exposure to AI-assisted development tools (GitHub Copilot or equivalent).
• Experience with SQL and cloud data stores for transaction logging, reconciliation, and audit trails.
• Strong troubleshooting skills for EDI envelope, segment, and business-rule level errors.

Nice To Haves

• Prior experience on an Edifecs-to-cloud (Azure/AWS) modernization project.
• Knowledge of Azure Health Data Services or FHIR.
• Exposure to CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps) for integration deployments.

Responsibilities

• Design and build EDI transaction processing pipelines on Azure (Logic Apps, Azure Functions, Azure Integration Account, Service Bus, API Management) to replace existing Edifecs-based workflows.
• Re-platform X12 mapping, validation, and transformation rules from Edifecs specs/maps into Azure-native schemas and custom code.
• Own end-to-end development for core healthcare transaction sets: 834 (Enrollment), 278 (Authorization), 270/271 (Eligibility), 835 (Remittance Advice), and 837 (Claims - institutional/professional/dental).
• Partner with QE to define test scenarios, synthetic EDI file generation, and automated validation for parity between legacy Edifecs output and new Azure pipelines.
• Apply AI/GenAI tooling (Copilot-style code assistance, LLM-based test case or mapping-rule generation) to speed up migration and reduce manual mapping effort.
• Troubleshoot transaction failures, envelope/segment errors, and companion-guide deviations across trading partners.
• Document mapping specifications, migration runbooks, and cutover/rollback plans for each transaction set.
• Collaborate with onshore/offshore teams, EDI business analysts, and clearinghouse/trading-partner contacts during parallel-run and go-live phases.
