About the Role
Healthcare is at an inflection point. While most healthcare organizations are still working to fully integrate cloud into their business strategies, modernizing legacy systems and securing patient data has never been more urgent. At Rackspace Technology, we operate the secure hybrid cloud, private hosting, and governed AI infrastructure where enterprise healthcare outcomes scale.

We are seeking a visionary physician executive to join us as Chief Digital Health Officer (CDHO) & Executive Advisor.

In this role, you will serve as the clinical voice, strategic face, and primary executive partner for our healthcare business. You will work alongside health system CIOs, CMIOs, and CDOs to help them navigate legacy modernization, transition to secure private and hybrid clouds, and safely scale enterprise AI.

Key Responsibilities

• C-Suite Advisory: Serve as Rackspace's primary executive physician voice, building relationships with hospital, payer, and life sciences executives to translate clinical and operational goals into cloud and AI roadmaps.
• Governed AI & Clinical Innovation: Lead the clinical strategy for Rackspace’s Enterprise AI initiatives, guiding health systems in establishing safe, HIPAA-compliant governance frameworks for generative AI, predictive analytics, and ambient documentation.
• Financial Alignment: Advise clients on the financial mechanics of digital transformation, helping C-suites evaluate TCO, optimize OpEx/CapEx alignment, and find efficiencies to offset legacy technology debt.
• Cloud Modernization: Help clinical leaders understand transition strategies, such as moving EHR workloads to secure, managed private clouds, improve clinical uptime, patient safety, and cyber resilience.
• Market Growth Partnership: Partner with Sales, Product, and Customer Success teams to articulate the business value of Rackspace's portfolio during high-stakes pursuits and client workshops.
• Product & Engineering Collaboration: Bring the voice of the clinician to developers and product managers to ensure solutions address hospital workflow pain points, EHR integration (Epic, Cerner, etc.), and interoperability standards (FHIR, HL7).
• Thought Leadership: Represent Rackspace at industry forums and keynote presentations to drive the conversation on how cloud maturity unlocks clinical success.

Qualifications

• Physician Leader: MD or DO.
• Informatics & Operational Leadership: 12+ years of progressive healthcare leadership, including at least 7 years in clinical informatics, digital health, or health IT (e.g., as a hospital CMIO, Associate CMIO, or CIO, CDIO, Chief Informatics Officer).
• Fiscal Stewardship: Direct experience managing or advising on substantial technology budgets, with a strong understanding of health system P&L structures and capital allocation. Strong track record of having delivered major digital programs such as EMR or ERP implementations.
• Cloud & Infrastructure Literacy: Understanding of public, private, and hybrid cloud architectures, data residency, EHR hosting, and cybersecurity requirements.
• AI & Data Expertise: Practical experience with clinical decision support systems, analytics, and emerging generative AI tools.
• Executive Communication: Ability to communicate effectively across clinical, technical, and financial audiences, from Chief Medical Officers to CEOs, CISOs and CFOs.
