This includes shaping AI sandbox environments for safe experimentation and evaluation, ensuring guardrails, interoperability, and user focus, and aligning with national and NHG regulatory frameworks. Convene or lead workgroups to align stakeholders and ensure coherence.
• Stakeholder Engagement

• Partnership Development
  
  Engage with ecosystem partners (vendors, academia, agencies) to shape pilots, PoCs, and pathways to scale, with well-defined success metrics.
• Knowledge Sharing
  
  Produce playbooks, capability maps, and practical guidance to help NHG teams navigate the digital health landscape confidently.

Who We're Looking For

• Education: Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Science, Engineering, Health Informatics, or related fields.
• Experience: ~10+ years in digital health, hospital technology, IT strategy, or healthcare innovation.

• Essential Capabilities:

• Broad fluency in digital health and hospital technology, with the ability to engage across domains.

• Strong grasp of healthcare operations, business drivers, and ROI considerations.
• Ability to act as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders, discerning needs and shaping roadmaps.

• Independent, resourceful, and comfortable forging partnerships, sourcing information, and leverage networks.
