Implementation Manager (Contractor Position)

Implementation Manager (6-Month Contract)

RapidAI is the trusted leader in deep clinical AI, helping hospitals deliver faster, more informed care through intelligent imaging and integrated workflows. The Rapid Enterprise™ Platform supports disease states across the care spectrum, but it's our clinical depth that drives the most meaningful impact — improving decision-making, patient outcomes, and health-system performance. Used by more than 2,500 hospitals in over 100 countries and backed by 700+ clinical studies, including research that helped expand national stroke-treatment guidelines, RapidAI is the most clinically validated AI platform in healthcare.

As an Implementation Manager (6-Month Contract) at RapidAI, you will be at the forefront of medical device software development, acting as the vital link between cutting-edge technology and hospital teams worldwide.

This high-energy position offers the opportunity to manage complex, multi-faceted projects independently while building strong, efficient relationships with healthcare providers to optimize their use of life-saving software. If you have a background in healthcare IT or clinical imaging and are excited to bridge the gap between technical innovation and real-world medical impact, this is a chance to make an immediate difference on a team dedicated to improving millions of lives.
