VP, Technology
India Development Center • Chennai, India • Full-Time
About Core Solutions
Core Solutions (CORE), headquartered in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, is the progressive leader in transforming the behavioral, medical and social services experience for behavioral health providers, consumers and state agencies. Our Integrated Behavioral Health EHR platform, Cx360, allows for the improvement of the provider, consumer and payer relationship through increased consumer-centric collaboration which results in improved outcomes. This is accomplished through our ability to simplify the end-to-end behavioral health experience, deliver integrated care coordination, improve consumer engagement and streamline accurate provider reimbursement.
The Opportunity
This is not a management title. This is a builder's role.
We are looking for a VP of Technology who still gets a rush from reading an elegant pull request, who reaches for the keyboard when a technical problem needs solving, and who believes the best engineering leaders lead by doing — not just by directing.
As VP of Technology for Core Solutions India, you will own technical leadership of our Chennai Development Center. You will work directly with the US engineering leadership team and CEO, drive our AI-first engineering strategy, and ensure the India team executes with excellence on a complex, modern platform serving hundreds of thousands of patients in behavioral health.
This role carries genuine authority and genuine accountability. You will shape how we build, what we build on, and how fast we get there.
What You Will Do
Technical Leadership & Hands-On Execution
- Actively review, write, and critique code across the Cx360 platform — .NET Core 8, React, SQL Server, PostgreSQL/Aurora, and AWS-native services
- Set and enforce engineering standards: code quality, architecture patterns, PR discipline, test coverage, and CI/CD hygiene
- Drive the ongoing product and database migrations, ensuring correctness, performance, and zero patient-data risk
- Get your hands dirty on the hardest technical problems — the team looks to you when things break or when the path forward isn't clear
- Participate in architecture reviews for new modules including clinical UI, database schema design and platform infrastructure
AI-First Engineering Strategy
- Lead the India team in operationalizing Core Solutions' AI-first strategy, including the Cx360 Intelligence Suite built on AWS platform.
- Champion the use of AI coding tools (AI First Coding, AI-assisted code review) across the India team to accelerate delivery velocity
- Identify opportunities to embed AI capabilities in internal engineering workflows — test generation, documentation, migration scripts, and code analysis
- Stay current on AI/ML developments relevant to healthcare tech and bring forward-looking technical proposals to the executive team
Engineering Team Leadership
- Lead, mentor, and grow a team of engineers in Chennai, developing career paths and building a culture of ownership and technical pride
- Partner with other organization leaders on organizational effectiveness, hiring, and team structure
- Establish and improve engineering processes: sprint planning, code review culture, incident management, and on-call discipline
- Bridge the US and India teams — ensure alignment on priorities, clear async communication, and shared technical context
- Recruit exceptional engineering talent; define the hiring bar and personally engage top candidates
What We Are Looking For
Must-Have
- 12+ years of software engineering experience, with at least 4 years in a senior technical leadership role
- Demonstrably hands-on: you write code regularly, not just in emergencies — you do it because you love it
- Deep fluency in .NET / C# and relational databases (SQL Server, PostgreSQL, or equivalent)
- Proven experience leading complex platform migrations in production healthcare or enterprise SaaS environments
- Strong AWS expertise — RDS, Aurora, EKS/ECS, Lambda, Bedrock, or equivalent cloud-native services
- Passionate about AI/ML and actively building with large language models (LLMs), AI agents, or AI-assisted developer tooling
- Exceptional technical communication: you can write a design doc, an architecture decision record, and a concise Slack message with equal clarity
- Experience leading distributed engineering teams across geographies
Strong Differentiators
- Background in healthcare technology, EHR platforms, or regulated software environments (HIPAA, HL7/FHIR)
- Hands-on experience with AWS Bedrock, Claude, OpenAI, or similar LLM platforms in production
- Experience with AI-assisted development environments
- Prior experience building or scaling an India Development Center
Who You Are
You are the engineer who still pulls up the diff before signing off. You have strong opinions on naming conventions and will say so in a code review. You read release notes for databases and runtimes because you find them interesting. You think the best management is being someone your team wants to learn from — technically, and as a person.

Why Core Solutions
Behavioral health is one of the most underfunded, underserved corners of American healthcare. The organizations we build for serve people who have nowhere else to go. Our platform is not a productivity app. It is infrastructure for people who need it most. We are small enough that your decisions matter immediately, and large enough that the problems are real. We are in the middle of a genuine technology transformation and we need a VP of Technology who wants to lead that, not inherit a finished product. If you want to code, lead, and build AI into healthcare at the same time, this is the role.
How to Apply
Send your resume and a brief note — tell us about a platform migration or technical challenge you led, and what you would want to build first at Core Solutions. We read every application.
