About Northern Health:

As an organisation we have a clear focus on how we service and partner with our community, including our strategy of helping the community stay well when at home. Our reputation of community minded, inclusive and progressive is matched to none.Â

Northern Health is located in the rapidly growing northern suburbs with projected growth the biggest in the state. With a booming, culturally rich and diverse community, and less than an hour’s drive from the CBD (still within the bounds of Myki and ride-sharing), Melbourne’s North is fast becoming the place to be.

Northern Health are seeking applications from motivated and suitably experienced Systems/Cloud Engineers to join the Electronic Medical Records (EMR) - Digital Health team at Northern Health on a part time, fixed term basis (one-year contract).Â

About the Role:

The Systems/Cloud Engineer plays a pivotal role in designing, implementing, maintaining, and optimising Northern Health’s hybrid infrastructure estate.

This position is responsible for ensuring the high availability, security,



and performance of both on-premise compute/storage and cloud-hosted platforms.Â

A primary focus of this role for the next 12 months will be supporting the transition from Health Technology Services (HTS) EMR on-premise hosting to Oracle Cloud infrastructure (OCI). Â

The Systems/Cloud Engineer will act as a key technical escalation point, ensuring that infrastructure changes cause minimal disruption to Northern Health’s 24/7 clinical environment. Â

To be successful in this role you will have:

- Assist EMR Cerner Millennium application (currently hosted at datacentre) migration into OCI.
- Design and connect directory services, identity management, and access controls via Active Directory to the vendor’s cloud platform, ensuring clean integration with core corporate platforms. 
- Coordinate directly with managed service partners to ensure external cloud targets and Virtual Protection Groups maintain strict Recovery Point Objectives and Recovery Time Objectives. Â
- Participate in ITIL-aligned change management practices, evaluating infrastructure changes against clinical impact statements and establishing rigid rollback workflows before execution. 
- Provide rapid tier-3 technical escalation support during critical service incidents,



performing root-cause analysis and coordinating with third-party vendors to remediate system faults. 
- Facilitate knowledge transfer, technical walkthroughs, and reverse-shadowing sessions with internal service desk and operational teams. Â
