About The Position

White Rock Medical Center, a 218-bed acute care hospital in East Dallas, is undergoing one of the most ambitious hospital transformations in the region. With new leadership at the helm, we’re not just fixing what’s broken—we’re rearchitecting how a hospital should run: operationally sound, financially disciplined, and deeply committed to the communities we serve. We are seeking a Director of Technology Strategy & Implementation to join our executive team. This role is not a stepping stone — it’s a launchpad for future healthcare executives. This is a high-intensity, high-reward role. You will operate directly under the CEO, with visibility across every department and challenge in the hospital. You’ll take ownership of some of our highest-priority strategic and operational initiatives — not just building the roadmap, but executing it. This is a role for someone who wants to move from strategy slides to tech implementation action. You'll work in the trenches with IT staff, clinicians, department heads, and business leaders to rebuild hospital technology from the ground up — and you'll be held accountable for real outcomes. The work is relentless, high-impact, and career-defining. In return, you’ll gain the kind of end-to-end IT, operational, and leadership experience that accelerates your path to becoming a CIO, CTO, or CEO of a hospital or health system.

Requirements

3-5 years of experience in healthcare IT leadership roles, with experience in EMR systems and hospital technology operations.
History of success – you have a proven track record of managing technology projects from strategy to execution.
Highly analytical and technologically fluent — you can understand the technical aspect of a problem, but more importantly, you can use that understanding to drive educated and prompt decisions.
Operate with a founder’s mentality – you see inefficiencies and act on them, you take ownership when things go wrong, and you don’t stop until it’s fixed.
Insatiably curious – you want to understand how a hospital works top-to-bottom, and you’re excited to get deep into the technological, operational, and clinical workflows.
