RPA Software Engineer at LiveData

Description

LiveData Explained

RPA Software Engineer

LiveData | Remote, United States (Eastern Time preferred) | Full-Time

About LiveData

LiveData is a healthcare technology company automating clinical and operational workflows across Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems. Our engineering team treats AI coding assistants as standard development tools, not experiments. We build on a serverless-first AWS architecture to keep systems lean and costs low while allowing AWS to manage more of the underlying infrastructure and security responsibilities under the Shared Responsibility Model.

LiveData was selected by Modern Healthcare as one of the Best Places to Work in Healthcare for 2025, its sixth consecutive year on the list.

The Role

We are looking for an RPA Software Engineer to design and build automation solutions that bridge clinical systems with modern tooling. Our immediate focus is new automation interfaces to Oracle Health/Cerner; you will own the lifecycle from process discovery through implementation, developing automation code with extensive use of modern AI development tools, while collaborating with DevOps on deployment and operational support.

This is a hands-on software engineering role, not a drag-and-drop bot builder position. You will write production code in Python and Playwright or UiPath, using modern AI development tools as part of your workflow. You will work directly with clinical stakeholders to understand and automate complex workflows, turning loosely defined processes into reliable automation using sound engineering judgment.

What You Will Do

• Design, develop, test, and deploy end-to-end automation solutions for EHR systems (MEDITECH, Oracle Health/Cerner, Epic) and adjacent healthcare applications
• Build browser-based automations in Python using Playwright or UIPath for workflows requiring web interaction
• Create reusable automation components, frameworks, and libraries for scalable delivery
• Prepare and maintain process documentation and deployment guides
• Collaborate with hospital IT, clinical operations staff, and engineering teammates to identify and prioritize automation opportunities
• Work with QA on test strategy and DevOps on deployment for your automations
• Conduct feasibility assessments and build business cases for new automation initiatives
• Use AI coding assistants (Claude Code and similar tools) as part of your daily development workflow

Requirements

What You Bring

Required:

• 2+ years developing automation solutions (RPA, browser automation, or workflow automation)
• Proficiency in Python with experience in at least one automation framework (Playwright, Selenium, UiPath, or similar)
• Strong ability to review, validate, and refine AI-generated code using sound software engineering practices
• Experience with UiPath Studio and Orchestrator, including REFramework, queue-based processing, and error handling patterns
• Solid understanding of REST API design and integration (JSON, OAuth)
• Experience with SQL databases and data management
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills; able to work independently
• Comfortable working from the command line; experience with Unix/Linux shell environments and composing small tools into reliable workflows
• Clear written and verbal communication skills, able to explain technical approaches to clinical and business stakeholders

Preferred:

• Experience in healthcare or a related regulated industry
• Familiarity with EHR systems (Oracle Health/Cerner, Epic, MEDITECH) and clinical workflows
• Knowledge of healthcare data standards (HL7, FHIR)
• Experience with AWS services (Lambda, S3, Aurora) or other cloud platforms
• Familiarity with serverless architecture patterns
• Experience with AI-assisted development tools and workflows
• UiPath certification (RPA Developer, Advanced Developer, or Solutions Architect)
• Experience with revenue cycle operations, claims processing, or clinical data integration

Tech Stack

• Languages: Python (primary), SQL
• Automation: Playwright (Python), UiPath Studio/Orchestrator
• Cloud: AWS (Lambda, Aurora, S3, CDK)
• Healthcare: Oracle Health, Epic, MEDITECH, HL7, FHIR
• Development: Git, GitHub, Poetry or uv, AI coding assistants (Claude Code)
• Architecture: Serverless-first, REST APIs, event-driven workflows

What Sets This Role Apart

1. AI-assisted development is expected. We use AI coding assistants daily; comfort with AI-assisted workflows is a baseline, not a bonus.
2. Healthcare domain matters. You will interact with EHR systems and clinical processes. Understanding the healthcare context makes you more effective.
3. Serverless-first architecture. We build on Lambda and Aurora Serverless rather than managing EC2 instances or containers. We value experience with serverless patterns.
4. Full lifecycle ownership. You own automations from discovery through production monitoring (assisting DevOps where necessary). This is not a role where you hand off code and walk away.
5. Direct connection to patient care. The workflows you automate directly affect clinical operations, reducing errors and freeing clinicians to focus on patients.

Benefits

Compensation

Competitive salary commensurate with experience. Benefits include health, dental, and vision insurance; 401(k); paid time off; and remote work flexibility.

Work Location

This is a fully remote opportunity. However, you must be able to meet approximately quarterly in the Boston area for all-hands, in-person get-togethers. We strongly prefer employees in the Eastern Time Zone. If you live elsewhere, it would be great to demonstrate previous experience working core business days between 8 AM and 5 PM Eastern.

Employment Authorization

Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis without the need for current or future visa sponsorship.
