About Elsevier Clinical Solutions

About the Role

ClinicalKey surfaces evidence-based clinical answers in the electronic health record (EHR), grounded in evidence and with the context of the patient in front of the clinician. It is a sophisticated sale that spans clinical leadership, informatics, IT, security and AI governance. Our professional sales organization needs a technical partner they can bring into a deal and be joined at the hip to help our customers succeed.

As Sales Engineer, you will be that partner. You will own the technical narrative for how ClinicalKey integrates with the customer’s EHR, guide customers and their IT organizations through integration, security and AI review, and remove the technical barriers that stand between a strong clinical case and a signed agreement. You will work alongside ClinicalKey sellers across the North American market, and serve as the connective tissue between the field and our Product and Technology teams.
Responsibilities
-
Deal Support: Serve as the on-demand technical partner to ClinicalKey sellers. Join discovery calls, demonstrations and technical deep dives on request, and act as the single point of escalation for integration questions during an active sales cycle.

-
Technical Discovery: Qualify Patient Context fit early by assessing the customer’s environment: EHR vendor and version, FHIR API availability and release, SMART on FHIR launch support, single sign-on model, and which patient data elements are exposed.

-
Solution Demonstration: Deliver and tailor technical demonstrations that show ClinicalKey and Patient Context inside the customer’s clinical workflow, rather than a generic product tour.

-
Integration Expertise: Own the technical narrative for how the integration works – SMART on FHIR launch, patient context passing, OAuth 2.0 authorization, the FHIR resources consumed, and how retrieved content is grounded in the patient record.

-
Security and Compliance Review: Lead responses to customer security, privacy and compliance review, including data flow, PHI handling and retention, HIPAA and BAA questions, and third-party risk documentation, coordinating with Information Security and Legal as needed.

-
AI Governance: Represent the solution in AI governance and clinical informatics committee reviews, explaining model behavior, evidence sourcing, citation provenance and safeguards in terms that clinical and technical review boards will accept.

-
Scoping and Feasibility: Scope integration effort and prerequisites – customer IT resources, interface team involvement, environment access and vendor certification requirements – and set realistic expectations before commitments are made.

-
Pilots and Proofs of Concept: Design and run technical pilots, including success criteria, environment set-up and validation that the integration performs as expected in the customer’s environment.

-
Implementation Handoff: Own a clean transition to Implementation and Customer Success, documenting agreed technical scope, configuration deci
