About Jacky So, M.B.S.

Senior Director of Digital Platforms & Innovation @ Primary.Health. Previously, Head of Technical Programs/Director of Technical Program Managers as a Day 1 Startup Employee who directly managed clients across time zones and collected UX Research during the day and product engineered at night in order to build our original data models, innovative data dashboards, operational playbooks, sales demos, and product features that guided agile rapid prototype software development so we could remotely grow from a team of 8 to nearly 200 and serve 10M+ software users with an SLA of 99.9% uptime along the way.At Primary.Health, my focus is on innovating digital health platforms, with a special emphasis on techquity—integrating technology with equity. Our team is pioneering an interoperability network for labs, enhancing clinic and care programs, and democratizing health knowledge. Truly collaborative and user-centered Product and Solutions Engineering means a lot to me because, if teams are trusted to come together in a psychologically-safe environment, it's the magic that helps startups and resource-limited teams achieve goals in record-time. I'm always mindful of how my unique background can help our us do more--from leadership, communications, copywriting, business analysis, scientific research, sales, operations, user experience marketing, market research, product development, client success, data engineering and analysis, and trend predictions.My personal mission is to nurture and influence a more-representative future through technology so that all of us feel visible. At my core, I’m an interpersonal community builder who loves cross-functional collaboration and the intersection of people.I sincerely believe that in order to build a better world, it will take all of us. Reach out if you’d like to chat about a project you may have.Thanks for stopping by!
