This is a full time position, M-F from 8am to 5pm

Role Description:

The purpose of a Clinical Informatics Specialist (CIS or Medical Scribe) at Oak Street Health is to support our primary care providers with clinical documentation so that they can focus on providing exceptional care to our patients. Scribes assist providers throughout the patient care journey - huddling each morning to plan for the day's visits, joining them in the exam room to observe and document, and touching base after the visit to assist with next steps.

Beyond the typical Scribe role, these important care team members serve as clinical documentation assistants to their paired provider. Internally, we call them CISs (Clinic Informatics Specialists) in recognition of their important role in supporting accurate, specific, and timely clinical documentation. In addition to observing and documenting all patient encounters in real time, our Scribes become experts in our value-based care model and the documentation and care of chronic conditions, including ICD-10 and CPT coding. Scribes use this expertise to help providers identify and help close care gaps. Scribes receive extensive on-the-job training in clinical workflows, value-based medicine, preventative care for chronic conditions, accurate and specific documentation, population health data streams, and team based care.

Because our patients and providers rely on our Scribes, the ideal candidate should commit at least 1-2 years to this role.

You’ll work across RDF and property graph paradigms and Snowflake semantic layer.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design and evolve healthcare ontologies and semantic models to standardize meaning across domains (clinical, patient, provider, claims, access, quality, outcomes).

• Design data products that are AI-ready and leverage ontologies and semantic models

Build metrics-first semantic layers:

• Define canonical metric definitions, dimensions, hierarchies, and calculation rules.

• Ensure metrics are explainable, auditable, and consistently implemented across products and teams.

• Model knowledge in both RDF (RDFS/OWL) for formal semantics and interoperability.

• Property graphs for traversal-heavy use cases and relationship analytics.

Develop and maintain semantic artifacts:

• Concept schemes, entity models, vocabularies, mappings, and documentation.

• Alignment patterns between ontologies, data products, and downstream analytics/AI use cases.

Implement semantic integration patterns:

• Entity identity resolution, entity linking, terminology harmonization, and enrichment workflows.

Partner with platform teams to operationalize semantics in Snowflake:

• Enable semantic access patterns that support analytics and AI applications.

• Contribute to solutions that leverage Snowflake Cortex for semantic enrichment and assisted discovery (within established governance constraints).

Collaborate with governance and architecture stakeholders to embed:

• Versioning, stewardship workflows, quality checks, and change management for semantic assets.

• Guide best practices and mentor engineers/analysts on ontology engineering, graph modeling, and metrics-first design.

Required Qualifications

• 8+ years in semantic engineering, ontology engineering, knowledge graph development, or closely related roles.

• Demonstrated experience in healthcare data domains (payer/provider, clinical, claims, RWE, quality, outcomes, etc.).

• Strong hands-on ontology engineering experience: RDF, RDFS, OWL, SPARQL and/or graph query experience

• Ontology modularization, alignment, and lifecycle management

• Experience with property graph modeling (e.g., Neo4j-style patterns) and translating between RDF and property graph representations when needed.

• Proven delivery of a metrics-first approach:

• Canonical KPIs/metrics definitions, dimensional modeling alignment, semantic consistency across BI and data products.

• Experience working with modern cloud data platforms, especially Snowflake, and exposure to Snowflake Cortex for AI-enabled workflows.

• Strong stakeholder communication skills: able to translate clinical/business intent into precise semantic definitions and usable artifacts.

Preferred Qualifications

• Familiarity with healthcare interoperability and terminology standards (e.g., HL7/FHIR, SNOMED CT, LOINC, ICD-10) and how to map/align them to enterprise semantics.

• Experience with semantic tooling and practices, validation rules, ontology testing, and CI/CD for semantic assets.
