Offer Description

Would you like a job in which your talent really has an impact on your surroundings? The UOC is not simply a university: our institution is dynamic, determined and ambitious, and drives social and educational changes. Over 30 years ago, we made history as the world's first online university. Our goal is to generate, transfer and join together knowledge to build a more critical, responsible and non-conforming society.

We are seeking to recruit a support technician for the Centre for Digital Transformation and Governance Research (UOC-DIGIT), within the Urbanlog research group at the UOC.

REMOTECARE is a European cross-border cooperation project, funded by the Interreg POCTEFA programme, which aims to improve healthcare in the Pyrenees (Spain, France, and Andorra) through the development of telemonitoring solutions that allow patients treated in accident and emergency (A&E;) departments to return home and remain under remote medical supervision, avoiding unnecessary hospital observation stays.

To achieve this,



the project involves the development and validation of a technological solution that integrates clinical monitoring devices, dashboards, and alert systems, facilitating patient follow-up and the early detection of potential complications.

The project involves the participation of healthcare partners, including the Catalan Institute of Health (ICS), through the Arnau de Vilanova University Hospital, and the Andorran Healthcare Service (SAAS), who participate in the development and validation of the solution in hospital A&E; departments and care homes.

Responsibilities

The successful candidate will be responsible for the design, development, and implementation of a technological platform that allows for the integration, processing, analysis, and visualisation of data generated by patient telemonitoring devices in hospital A&E; departments and care homes.

Their main responsibilities will include:

-

- Platform design and development: defining and implementing a modular and scalable architecture that allows the integration of data from different clinical monitoring devices.

- Data integration and management: developing mechanisms to capture, store, and process the raw data generated by the devices, ensuring its integrity and traceability.

- Development of dashboards, graphs, and KPIs: designing and implementing interactive dashboards, graphs, and key performance indicators (KPIs)



to visualise and analyse clinical variables, identify trends, make comparisons, and facilitate patient monitoring and decision-making.

- Configuration of variables and alarms: developing a adaptable system that allows the incorporation of new clinical variables and the configuration of automatic alarms and notifications according to the parameters and thresholds defined by the medical teams.

- Integration with hospital systems: assessing the technical feasibility of integrating the platform with hospital information systems, especially those linked to A&E; departments, identifying interoperability, security, and information access requirements.

- Identification of new opportunities: collaborating in the exploration of new technology applications, functionalities, and potential research and innovation projects linked to telemonitoring and digital health.

- Implementation and validation in the pilot scheme: supporting the implementation of the platform in pilot environments, conducting technical tests, resolving incidents, and collaborating with clinical teams to validate its operation and adapt it to user needs.

- Security and documentation: ensuring compliance with technical security and data protection requirements, and documenting the architecture, integrations, and developed functionalities.

The contract will be fixed-term for 5 months and part-time. We will agree upon a start date once the recruitment process is completed.

-

- Education: Hold a technical qualification (Higher Vocational Training [CFGS], ongoing or completed university studies, or equivalent training) in electronics, computer science, telecommunications, embedded systems, electr
