About the role

The Director of Clinical & Operational Strategy, Acute Care provides system-level clinical and operational subject matter expertise to inform TeleTracking’s product strategy, use case development, and acute-care operational design. The role partners with Product, Analytics, Commercial, Clinical Services, and other internal teams to align recommendations with current-state and future-state workflows, regulatory and accreditation considerations, and enterprise performance drivers. This position operates as a senior individual contributor within a formal triad model alongside Product and Services leadership. This job description is not intended to be an all-inclusive list of duties, responsibilities, or qualifications associated with the role.

What you will do

Clinical & Operational Strategy Integration

  • Translate acute-care clinical and operational workflows into clear requirements, use cases, and decision support for Product and Engineering teams.
  • Contribute to roadmap development through use case definition, workflow validation, and future-state capability design in collaboration with cross-functional stakeholders.
  • Incorporate health-system performance drivers into analyses and recommendations (e.g., length of stay, throughput, labor efficiency, contribution margin, avoidable delays, access constraints, capacity bottlenecks) while adhering to applicable policies and standards.

 Cross-Functional Strategic Partnership

  • Collaborate with stakeholders across Product, Commercial, Clinical, Enterprise Analytics, Services, and other internal teams to scope, validate, and deliver strategic recommendations.
  • Solicit and consider diverse perspectives and data sources to support sound judgment and reduce bias in analysis.
  • Synthesize cross-functional input into documented, enterprise-aligned recommendations and communicate rationale, tradeoffs, and assumptions.
  • Follow company policies and applicable legal/regulatory requirements when handling sensitive information (including patient or client data, as applicable) and when engaging with customers, partners, or internal teams.

Expanded Acute & Health-System Framing

  • Represent the full acute ecosystem: ED, inpatient, ICU, care management, patient flow, transfer/access, and transitions of care.
  • Exclude perioperative operations, while incorporating the operational transitions to and from perioperative services (pre-op readiness, post-op placement, bed flow, downstream constraints etc.).
  • Frame decisions within the broader health-system context, incorporating clinical, operational, and financial implications.

Facilitation & Alignment Leadership

  • Convene and facilitate stakeholders across the organization — Product, Services, Commercial, Clinical, and others — to achieve aligned, enterprise-level results.
  • Reduce rework by promoting early engagement and multi-perspective planning.
  • Model collaborative, alignment-first behaviors.

Triad Leadership & Collaboration

  • Operate as one of three strategic leaders within the acute-care triad. Ensure clinical and system-level insights are incorporated into shared decision-making.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
