Senior Manager, IT

What is the Senior Manager, IT role?

As the leader of all IT operations at CopilotIQ+Biofourmis, you will ensure that our remote team has seamless access to the technology they need to deliver exceptional healthcare solutions.

You'll be the systems-oriented problem solver who ensures our technology infrastructure stays in the background, enabling our teams to focus on transforming healthcare. Success means maintaining operational excellence through data-driven oversight, optimizing costs through strategic vendor management, and serving as a trusted partner to leadership on technology decisions.

• Optimize costs and vendor relationships, assessing software options for maximum value while managing budgets and renewal cycles with stakeholders across the organization
• Implement and manage security policies developed collaboratively with internal teams and external partners, including hands-on onboarding/offboarding processes and compliance documentation
• Drive process improvements through data analysis, tracking and reporting KPIs, creating self-service tools and automation to reduce support tickets while building reliable systems that keep technology in the background
• Collaborate cross-functionally as the primary IT liaison to leadership and external partners, ensuring all teams have the technology support needed for their roles
