Senior🎓
Top SchoolAdam Flinton is a solution architect with 12+ years of hands-on experience designing and delivering healthcare IT systems, now continuing his role at OptumUK following EMIS Health’s acquisition. He specializes in healthcare standards and tooling—contributing to SNOMED, HL7, OpenEHR and NHS-specific formats—and has built cloud-native, automated deployments and CI/CD pipelines that enabled distributed teams to ship reliably. Comfortable from inception through long-term maintenance, he blends deep integration and terminology expertise with practical DevOps skills (Ansible, Jenkins, AWS/GCP) to make complex standards usable in production. Notably, he led the technical redevelopment of SNOMED tooling into web services and open-source DevOps automation used across multiple clouds. Based in Scalby, UK, Adam pairs an uncommon mix of standards governance experience and pragmatic engineering, having also produced validation and publishing platforms that underpin national interoperability.
