      • At least 3 years of experience working within healthcare, clinical, outpatient, or regulated environments.
      • Proven experience designing and implementing quality assurance programs where processes and frameworks needed to be built or significantly improved.
      • Experience developing quality measurement systems, defining metrics, analyzing operational data, and driving improvement initiatives.
      • Strong program management skills with the ability to coordinate multiple stakeholders and deliver initiatives from concept through completion.
      • Excellent communication and collaboration skills with both clinical and non-clinical teams.
      • Ability to use data tools and AI-assisted analysis methods to improve quality processes while applying sound professional judgment.
