Lead end-to-end program management across delivery workstreams, translating strategic priorities into structured execution plans.

The work supports clinicians' access to patient health data and a connected digital health ecosystem.

What you'll do

  • Manage delivery workstreams and maintain the roadmap with Product Management and Engineering, aligning quarterly and sprint plans with capacity, dependencies, and client commitments.
  • Lead quarterly planning and risk reviews; maintain the program risk log and drive mitigation accountability.
  • Track capital expenditure and budgets, flag variances, and support monthly business reviews and executive updates.
  • Prepare status communications for leadership and cross-functional stakeholders.
  • Coordinate external program partnerships, contract reviews, and internal legal, finance, and product stakeholders.
  • Identify government funding, co-investment, and interoperability partnership opportunities; engage provincial and national stakeholders.
  • Coordinate the strategic build-out of a Health Information Exchange, aligning architecture, scope, and go-to-market sequencing.
  • Serve as a coordination point across engineering, product, legal, finance, and business development; maintain client-side relationships.

What you bring

  • 7+ years of progressive program or project management experience in technology, digital health, or health IT.
  • Experience managing complex programs with competing priorities, tight timelines, and ambiguity.
  • Experience with government, public health, or regulated health data environments, including funding applications and contract management.
  • Strong written and verbal communication, including executive-level communications and cross-functional relationship building.
  • Comfort tracking capital budgets, actuals, variances, and monthly financial reporting.
  • Hands-on risk management experience, including risk logs or equivalent frameworks and facilitated risk reviews.
  • Proficiency with program management and collaboration tools such as Jira, Confluence, and Google Workspace.
  • English fluency is required; French is a great-to-have.

Great-to-haves

  • Familiarity with FHIR 4, HL7, SNOMED, provincial health information networks, or Canada Health Infoway programs.
  • PMP, PgMP, or equivalent certification; exposure to SAFe, Scrum, or Kanban; coordination across multiple sprint teams.
  • Experience with technology-services contract negotiations for government or health-sector clients.
