Clinical Informatics Consultant

About Knit Health

Knit Health is building a novel clinical foundation model to improve the way healthcare is delivered. We combine expertise in AI with deep clinical knowledge to develop safe, trustworthy systems that improve care, expand access, and reduce waste. Knit is led by a founding team from the University of California Berkeley who have developed a novel AI architecture which learns to reason like physicians. We’re now closing the loop and using our novel foundation model, together with frontier clinical LLMs, to build a next generation clinical intelligence platform for providers. We are venture backed and have partnered with multiple US-based health systems and data providers.

Why this role

We are seeking a consultant with deep expertise in Epic data architecture to advise our team on accessing, interpreting, and structuring EHR data for product development and analytics. The primary focus is Epic (e.g., Clarity and Caboodle), with familiarity across other major EHR vendors preferred. The consultant should understand how clinical workflows (e.g., documentation, ordering, medication administration) generate data within the operational EHR and how those data propagate into reporting tables used for downstream analysis. This role will help translate complex EHR structures into scalable, analysis-ready data models and advise on cross-vendor data normalization and interoperability standards (e.g., FHIR, HL7, SNOMED, LOINC).

We estimate that the current need is ongoing for approximately 4-6 hours per week.

What you'll do

  • Serve as a strategic advisor on Epic (Clarity; Caboodle preferred) data architecture, guiding data access, structure, and interpretation.
  • Translate clinical workflows and system build decisions into clear data lineage from operational EHR to reporting environments.
  • Advise on the design of scalable, analytics-ready data models derived from EHR extracts.
  • Provide guidance on cross-vendor data normalization and interoperability standards (FHIR, HL7, SNOMED, LOINC).
  • Assess data quality, governance, and structural risks; recommend best practices for sustainable architecture.
  • Partner with product, engineering, and analytics leaders to align EHR data strategy with business and product goals.
  • Offer expert consultation on querying and optimizing large healthcare datasets.

Minimum qualifications

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience working with Epic data (Clarity required; Caboodle preferred)
  • Strong understanding of how clinical workflows and system build decisions affect downstream data structure
  • Experience designing analytics-ready datasets from raw EHR extracts
  • Familiarity with other EHR vendors and healthcare interoperability standards
  • Strong SQL skills and experience working with large healthcare datasets

Salary Range

The range for the Clinical Informatics Consultant is approximately $150-175/hr.

Benefits

Generous benefits for full-time employees include: medical, dental, and vision coverage with 100% of premiums paid for employees and dependents (full coverage for dental, vision, and our Gold medical plan; employees may choose to buy up to Platinum); coverage begins on the first day of employment. Additional benefits include a 401(k) plan and 24 days of PTO annually.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
