• Direct clinical validation, system testing, release readiness assessments, cutover planning, and go‑live preparation to support safe and effective implementation.
• Provide leadership during go‑live activities, incident management, issue resolution, and post‑implementation stabilization, ensuring timely responses to clinical and operational challenges.
• Embed patient safety, clinical quality, and evidence‑based practices into system configuration, workflow design, and implementation decisions.
• Develop and support clinician education, change management, communication, and adoption initiatives to facilitate successful transitions to new digital workflows.
• Monitor program progress, identify risks and dependencies, track issues, and provide actionable recommendations and status updates to senior leadership.
• Mentor team members, facilitate knowledge transfer, and contribute to the development of sustainable internal clinical informatics capabilities and continuous optimization practices.

Requirements

• At least 10 years of experience in clinical informatics, enterprise EHR/EMR/CIS implementation or optimization, and clinical workflow design within a healthcare system, including progressively responsible leadership experience.
• A minimum of 5 years in a leadership or senior advisory role overseeing clinical informatics, clinical system build activities, or clinical workflow teams within a multi‑site acute‑care healthcare environment.
• Demonstrated experience standardizing, redesigning, and localizing clinical workflows across multiple healthcare facilities while balancing enterprise requirements with approved site‑specific needs.
• Strong expertise in clinical informatics and enterprise electronic health record systems, including the ability to translate clinical requirements into technical configuration specifications and build activities.
• Proven experience engaging physicians and other clinical stakeholders, facilitating clinical governance, managing competing priorities, and supporting collaborative decision‑making and system adoption.
• Hands‑on knowledge of clinical validation, testing strategies, release readiness, cutover planning, go‑live execution, incident management, and post‑implementation stabilization.
• A strong understanding of patient safety, clinical quality, clinician education, adult learning principles, change management, and continuous improvement in digital healthcare environments.
