The program centers on a large-scale network re-engineering effort across hospital, clinic, and administrative sites. Work runs across multiple campuses, in Putnam County, New York and Western Connecticut. Clinical environments run around the clock, so cutover work happens inside tight, planned maintenance windows.

You will coordinate network engineering, facilities, and clinical operations teams, plan the cutover windows, and keep program leadership current on progress and risk.

• Lead site readiness and cutover planning with network engineering, facilities, and clinical operations teams.
• Prepare and deliver status reporting to program leadership, covering schedule health, budget position, and open risks.
• Run change control, escalate blockers early, and drive issues to resolution rather than waiting for the next status meeting.
• Coordinate vendors and third-party resources, confirm deliverables against contract, and resolve delivery problems.
• Document decisions, dependencies, and lessons learned so each site moves faster than the one before it.
