The Chance

ShiftRight Consulting is seeking a Senior Clinical IAM & Context Specialist with direct hospital or clinical healthcare experience to support a large-scale healthcare technology transformation. This is a one-year remote contract opportunity.

This is not a generic IAM or cybersecurity role. The ideal candidate combines deep technical identity and access management expertise with hands-on experience designing or implementing authentication, application access and contextual workflows in clinical environments. You understand how healthcare professionals access patient information and how identity, authentication and application integration affect clinical workflows and patient care.

1. Key Responsibilities

- Design and assess clinical authentication solutions, including single sign-on (SSO), multi-factor authentication (MFA), tap-and-go and clinical session management.
- Assess clinical applications for contextual launch, synchronized patient context, interoperability and workflow optimization.
- Develop identity and integration architecture across clinical applications, identity services and healthcare interoperability platforms.
- Support technical assessments, implementation planning, testing, troubleshooting and go-live readiness.
- Identify technical and clinical workflow risks, develop operational documentation and facilitate discussions with clinical and technical stakeholders.

Required Qualifications

- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science,



Health Informatics or a related discipline; equivalent education and experience may be considered.
- 3+ years of direct experience in a hospital or clinical IT environment, understanding clinical workflows and their impact on patient care and clinician efficiency.
- 5+ years of solution architecture and large-scale implementation experience.
- Demonstrated experience designing or assessing clinical application access, authentication, identity integration or clinical workflow solutions.
- Strong technical, analytical and stakeholder engagement skills.

Preferred Technical Experience

- Imprivata or comparable clinical SSO technologies.
- Active Directory / Microsoft Entra ID, OAuth 2.0/OIDC and SAML.
- SMART on FHIR, RESTful FHIR APIs and PowerShell.
- Clinical context synchronization, launch-in-context, shared workstations and healthcare interoperability.
- Hands-on implementation and troubleshooting across multiple technologies in clinical environments.
- French and English bilingual proficiency is an asset.

How to Apply

Submit a résumé of no more than five pages to [email protected], highlighting relevant hospital or clinical healthcare projects, your specific technical contributions, project dates and implementation outcomes, along with your availability.

Important: Candidates with general enterprise IAM experience but no direct clinical or hospital IT experience will not meet the role’s requirements.
