vCIO - Healthcare IT

Virtual Chief Information Officer (vCIO)

Help healthcare organizations make smarter technology decisions.

We're looking for a strategic, client-facing Virtual Chief Information Officer (vCIO) who can bridge the gap between business leadership, compliance, cybersecurity, and technology strategy.

This is not a help desk role. It is not project management. It is not traditional IT consulting.

You'll serve as a trusted advisor to healthcare organizations, helping executive teams navigate technology investments, cybersecurity risks, HIPAA compliance, data governance, and long-term technology planning.

What You'll Do

• Lead strategic technology planning for healthcare clients

• Develop and manage multi-year IT roadmaps

• Conduct Quarterly and Strategic Business Reviews with executive stakeholders

• Advise clients on technology budgeting, risk management, and modernization initiatives

• Guide healthcare organizations on:

  • HIPAA & HITECH compliance

  • Cybersecurity strategy

  • Data governance and information management

  • Business continuity and disaster recovery

• Facilitate HIPAA Security Risk Assessments and compliance readiness initiatives

• Translate complex technical and security concepts into clear business recommendations

• Act as the strategic bridge between client leadership and technical delivery teams

What We're Looking For

• 7+ years of progressive IT leadership experience

• 3+ years in a vCIO, CIO, IT Director, Technology Advisor, TAM, or strategic consulting role

• Experience supporting healthcare organizations, medical practices, or healthcare-adjacent environments

• Strong understanding of:

  • HIPAA and HITECH

  • Healthcare cybersecurity requirements

  • Data governance principles

  • Risk management frameworks

  • Microsoft 365, Azure, SharePoint, and Entra ID

• Exceptional communication and executive presentation skills

• Ability to build trusted relationships with senior leadership teams

Bonus Points

• HITRUST experience

• HIPAA Security Officer experience

• CISSP, HCISPP, CISM, CRISC, CDMP, ITIL, or Microsoft certifications

• Experience with EHR/EMR platforms such as Epic, Athena, eClinicalWorks, or NextGen

You'll Thrive Here If You...

• Think like a business advisor, not just a technologist

• Enjoy helping executives make informed decisions

• Can discuss cybersecurity risk without using technical jargon

• Understand that compliance, governance, and security are business priorities

• Love building long-term trusted client relationships

If you're passionate about helping healthcare organizations leverage technology safely, strategically, and effectively, we'd love to hear from you.
