Data Analyst / Health Informatics Specialist

About the role

AMI Expeditionary Healthcare (AMI) is seeking a Data Analyst / Health Informatics Specialist to support the Indian Health Service (IHS) Office of Public Health Support on an initiative to improve immunization coverage.

Responsibilities

• Lead technical analysis of five interconnected IHS data systems: RPMS (electronic health record), Clinical Reporting System (CRS), iCARE population management tool, NIRS/National Vaccine Coverage dashboard, and GPRA performance measures.
• Document what each system measures, its data sources and methodologies, reporting frequency and outputs, and limitations — producing a definitive Systems Analysis Report.
• Trace end-to-end data lineage from patient-level RPMS records through CRS extraction to national aggregation, and reconcile differences in data definitions across systems.
• Assess data quality issues, reporting inconsistencies, and interpretation errors that undermine confidence in coverage data.
• Translate technical findings into plain-language content for user guidance, process maps, and training materials.
• Support development of report-interpretation instruction: how to read the numbers, spot coverage gaps, and monitor progress over time.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Health Informatics, Information Systems, Public Health, Data Analytics, Statistics, or a related field.
• Minimum 5 years of experience analyzing healthcare data, clinical reporting systems, performance measures, dashboards, data quality assessments, and reporting methodologies.
• Experience with healthcare data systems and reporting tools; RPMS/CRS/iCARE experience strongly preferred.
• Experience with clinical quality measures (GPRA, HEDIS, UDS, eCQMs) and immunization data (IIS, vaccine coverage measurement).
• Proficiency with analytic and visualization tools (SQL, Excel, Power BI/Tableau, SAS/R/Python).
• Federal, IHS, tribal, or safety-net health system experience.
