Who we are
Kontakt.io is the market leader in Intelligent Orchestration of Care Operations, helping hospitals cut waste, reduce costs, and improve patient experiences. Our AI- and RTLS-powered platform unifies data across systems, automates workflows, and orchestrates staff, equipment, and patient flow in real time—delivering up to a 2% EBITDA margin uplift for hospitals. We’re deployed system-wide at hundreds of hospitals (including HCA systemwide). We’re on a path to $100M ARR, doubling revenue year over year, after raising $50M from Goldman Sachs in 2024.

Why this role
You’ll be the boots-on-the-ground owner for hospital deployments of Kontakt.io solutions—coordinating site readiness, installation crews, hospital IT, and vendors to turn SOWs into live, stable systems that deliver measurable outcomes.
What you’ll do
- Plan deployments end-to-end: create detailed site plans, milestones, dependencies, and checklists.
- Run the field rhythm: lead daily/weekly standups with contractors, facilities/biomed, and hospital IT; unblock tasks and drive decisions on site.
- Site readiness & installs: coordinate surveys, placement, cabling/low-voltage, mounting, labeling, and inventory; ensure EHS compliance and access/permits.
- Field readiness: pre-stage devices, execute commissioning/functional tests, document results, and manage punch lists to closure.
- Risk & change control: surface issues early, and manage change orders within SOW.Documentation & handover: produce as-builts, acceptance criteria/results, and clean handoffs to Support/CSM; run the 30–60–90 day stabilization checklist.
- Vendors & budgets: coordinate third-party installers and OEMs to SLAs; track actuals vs. plan to protect PS margin.

How we work
- IC ownership: outcomes over activities; clear scope, gates, and acceptance.
