Team — Software Defined Corporation

The team

Three executives. Seventy-five-plus combined years. One standard.

Software Defined Corporation is led by a partnership of senior technology executives who have each spent more than twenty-five years building, developing, and operating some of the largest and most complex infrastructure, data, and application environments in healthcare — and who now make that experience available on a fractional basis.

In short

We are not a staffing agency placing contractors, and we are not a consultancy that sends in the partner for the pitch and the associates for the work. The people you meet in the first conversation are the people who do the engagement. Each of us has held the accountable title — Director, CIO, CTO, Privacy Officer, Security Officer — inside organizations where the systems could not be allowed to fail.

What the team has done

Enterprise infrastructure

Designed, built, and operated datacenter, cloud, network, storage, and identity platforms at national health-system and publicly traded payer-provider scale.

Data & application management

Owned EHR, claims, revenue-cycle, interoperability, and enterprise data-warehouse platforms, from implementation through years of production operation and modernization.

Executive accountability

Served as Director of IT, CIO, CTO, and HIPAA Privacy and Security Officer — reporting to boards, answering to auditors and regulators, and owning the budget.

Managed services

Built and led engineering and escalation teams at managed service providers, serving clients across healthcare, professional services, manufacturing, and finance.

We have chosen not to publish individual partner names and employer histories on this site while the practice is being formed. They are shared in the first conversation, and you will recognize the organizations. The founder’s background is public: Rashid Amin, Founder →

How we work

A team, not an individual

A fractional executive engagement is staffed with a lead partner and backed by the others. Vacation, illness, and a bad week do not interrupt coverage, and every significant decision has a second senior opinion behind it.

Written scope, published service levels

What we will do, how often, and to what standard is written down before the engagement starts. Then it is reported against every month, in the same format we use to score vendors.

Measured, not asserted

Our MFid method exists because we got tired of arguing about whether a vendor, a platform, or a team had delivered. We apply it to our own work, and we publish our own score, live, on this site.

Independent of vendors

We hold no resale agreements and take no referral fees from the platforms we recommend or operate. When we tell you to buy, renew, or walk away, the only interest in the room is yours.

What we believe

Infrastructure has no industrial boundaries. The discipline that keeps a hospital running keeps any organization running. Only the stakes change.
A promise that is not measured is a rumor. Service levels, vendor claims, and our own commitments are scored, not described.
The weakest link is the score. Ten things done well do not excuse the one that failed when it mattered.
Say the hard thing early. A board that hears the risk in month one can act on it. One that hears it in month twelve can only absorb it.

Meet the people, not the pitch.

Thirty minutes with a partner — names, backgrounds, and a candid read on whether we are the right fit.
