• Direct on-site support teams during the technology refresh, serving as the lead consultant to drive industry best practices.
• Lead on-site hypercare activities post-deployment, providing advanced troubleshooting across networking, server, and storage stacks to remediate all outstanding issues.
• Act as the primary technical liaison for client executives, providing clear status updates and strategic recommendations.
• Coordinate with low voltage subcontractors to convey cabling requirements and answer any questions they may have during the installation process.
• Third-Party & Clinical Integration
• Collaborate with third-party application vendors to integrate connected clinical modalities (e.g., Digital Radiography, PACS, Laboratory Analyzers) into the core architecture.
• Ensure all vendor-specific requirements for security and connectivity are met within the hospital’s network framework.
