Virtual Position (OR/WA Only) 

This is a virtual role open to candidates working from Oregon or Washington. While the position is primarily virtual, there may be occasions when on‑site work is required at a designated Legacy Health location. 

All new hires are required to travel to a Legacy Health office in Portland, Oregon prior to their start date to complete a new‑hire health assessment and new‑hire paperwork. Initial training and orientation may be conducted on‑site before transitioning to the remote schedule.

Every aspect of what we do at Legacy reinforces our commitment to improve the lives of our staff, our patients and our visitors. Information Services is no exception. IS drives so much of what we do, and we look for experts in the field to lead the way. Do you have your finger on the pulse of information systems for business and health care? Can you analyze, build, test, support and maintain systems that will benefit our hospital system and those we serve? If so, we’d like to hear from you.
