Fractional Laboratory Informaticist

About Us:

Lunar is a stealth technology company building a new type of software platform for health systems. We are on a mission to revolutionize healthcare with cutting-edge, AI-powered software designed to help every hospital deliver world-class care for their patients. Our platform is already the core backbone of health systems today, transforming clinical and operational workflows at scale with the world’s first AI-native hospital information system.

This next-generation platform is a fundamental rebuild of the information infrastructure that runs health systems. All of it – from doctors, nurses, pharmacists, lab technicians, coders, billers, supply chain, and even patients – Lunar’s software powers everything, soup-to-nuts. We believe that this mission is the moon landing of healthcare – something so consequential and ambitious that most people believe it to be impossible.

Backed by Silicon Valley’s preeminent venture capital firms, we believe in the power of a high performance team of seasoned professionals operating at the peak of their abilities. We value people who are driven, curious, have sound judgement, and care about doing the best work of their careers.

We are looking for an experienced Laboratory Informaticist to help us set up our laboratory configuration and optimize workflows in Lunar as we look to shape the future of healthcare. Come join us and play a pivotal role in this exciting and important mission.

Over the next 6 months, here are some ways you can make an impact:

• Lab Order and Test Configuration: Configure laboratory orders, tests, and specimen rules tailored to specific departments and hospital configurations to ensure accuracy and compliance in laboratory operations.

• Translate Traditional LIS Workflows to Lunar: Bridge the gap between Lunar's next-generation platform and traditional laboratory information system (LIS) workflows, ensuring smooth adoption and user understanding.

• Training and Documentation: Create comprehensive training materials and provide guidance to hospitals, translating complex lab ordering, resulting, and workflow processes into clear and practical resources.

• Interfaces and Result Edits: Define and compile rules for laboratory interfaces and result edits, including critical value flags, reflex testing logic, units, and reference-range mapping. Oversee the setup and testing of these rules within the system.

• Quality Assurance: Configure and establish QA processes within Lunar's LIS and tailor them to individual customer configurations.

• Interface and Workflow Review: Review and refine laboratory interfaces and resulting workflows for each hospital partner, ensuring seamless integration with analyzers and reference labs.

Your Experience:

• Experience: Approximately 10 years of clinical laboratory experience across multiple domains such as hematology, chemistry, immunology, microbiology, etc.

• LIS Implementation: Proven track record of leading or supporting successful LIS implementations or interface builds.

• Product Intuition: Deep understanding of laboratory information systems with the ability to intuitively navigate and optimize software for enhanced performance and usability.

• Laboratory Standards: Deep understanding of laboratory coding and terminology standards (e.g., LOINC, SNOMED).

• Problem Solving: Complex problem-solving abilities in laboratory operations and systems environments.

• Training & Communication: Strong skills in translating complex processes into clear, concise training materials, and communicating effectively with hospital teams at all levels.

• Passion for Healthcare: Enthusiasm for improving laboratory operations through cutting-edge software solutions that drive both operational efficiency and quality.

At Lunar, we know our greatest strength is the diverse blend of backgrounds, experiences, and ideas that our team members contribute. We’re passionate about healthcare, but we are also passionate about creating an inclusive workplace where every unique talent and perspective is not just respected, but celebrated. We thrive on embracing differences and are fully committed to fostering a fair, supportive, and dynamic environment where everyone has the opportunity to shine.
