SPECIAL NOTES
We are building out a large team for Epic functionality. We will need multiple roles filled between December through April for skilled people with extensive Epic build experience (installed and being installed). These are hybrid roles designed for those in the DFW area, as they will be onsite at least once per week. We may consider further distances outside of DFW, but would need to be onsite once per month if in Texas or quarterly if out of state.
