Boston, United States Gather Health Full time
Who is Gather Health?

We are a new and growing healthcare organization with a unique and innovative approach to healthcare. Our mission is to improve lives and communities through socially supported primary care for older adults. Our innovative business model allows our clinicians to treat the whole patient - not just their clinical needs. We do this by having a dedicated care team that supports our clinicians by addressing our patients' social determinants of health and providing the highest quality of service possible. Our ultimate vision is creating generational health and equity for communities across the country, one patient at a time.

Position Overview

We are seeking a Director of IT Infrastructure to lead and oversee the design, implementation, and maintenance of the IT infrastructure at Gather Health. This role requires an experienced leader who can support a rapidly growing healthcare organization by implementing scalable, secure solutions while addressing the challenges of serving at-risk patient populations. The Director of IT Infrastructure will be responsible for ensuring the availability, security, and privacy of all technology systems, working across functional teams, overseeing vendor relationships, and ensuring compliance with healthcare-specific regulations such as HIPAA and HITECH.

This hybrid role requires candidates to be located in the Boston area. While the position offers a mix of remote and in-person work, regular on-site presence at our Boston centers is essential for team collaboration and support.

    • Procurement and Vendor Management:
    • Manage procurement of hardware, software, and IT services, negotiating contracts and managing relationships with third-party vendors.
    • Oversee the lifecycle of IT assets, including procurement, deployment, maintenance, and retirement.
    • Evaluate and select vendors to ensure cost-effective and high-quality service delivery aligned with organizational goals.
    • Connectivity and Support:
    • Ensure all primary care sites maintain reliable connectivity and network infrastructure, including wireless access, VPNs, and remote access solutions.
    • Manage IT support teams providing Tier 1 and 2 support to onsite and remote staff.
    • Troubleshoot connectivity and hardware issues to minimize downtime and ensure operational continuity.
    • Compliance and Documentation:
    • Ensure adherence to all regulatory requirements, including HIPAA, HITECH, and other relevant healthcare laws.
    • Maintain accurate documentation of all IT systems, policies, and procedures to support audits and accreditation processes.
Background
    • Bachelor's degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, or a related field; a master's degree is preferred.
    • 10+ years of experience in IT infrastructure management, with at least 5 years in a leadership role, preferably in the healthcare industry.
    • Experience supporting IT infrastructure in primary care or other healthcare environments, particularly those serving at-risk populations
    • Extensive experience managing IT security and privacy in compliance with healthcare regulations (e.g., HIPAA, HITECH).
    • Strong knowledge of network architecture, cloud services, virtualization technologies, and disaster recovery planning.
    • Proven track record in hardware/software procurement and vendor management.
    • Experience leading IT teams in a multi-location environment.
