Nine months after naming a new CEO, Princeton-based CitiusTech added another executive to its leadership team. The health care technology company announced Jan. 4  it appointed Sudhir Kesavan as chief operating officer, effective immediately. 

As COO, Kesavan is responsible for leading the company’s global delivery organization, including enhancing practice capability, service delivery maturity and market innovation.  

Kesavan joins CitiusTech from PwC India, where he served as partner, Advisory – Cloud Transformation, and was responsible for that company’s cloud business. He has also held executive and management positions with Wipro, ValueLabs and Tata Consultancy Services, according to his LinkedIn profile. 

“We’re thrilled to welcome Sudhir to the CitiusTech family at this exciting phase of our growth journey,” CitiusTech Rajan Kohli said in a statement. “His expertise in digital innovation, technology-led transformation, and invaluable experience at the intersection of innovation, complexity and scale will play a pivotal role in our aspiration to be at the forefront of shaping the healthtech landscape with a human-first approach.” 

The company added that Kesavan has extensive experience facilitating “inside-out and outside-in transformations, optimizing technology operations and promoting customer-driven business models for clients.” 

A representative for CitiusTech told NJBIZ that Kesavan succeeds Atul Soneja, who has moved on from the organization. 

Kesavan said he looks “forward to being part of an organization with a determined commitment to excellence and innovation in the healthcare industry. … I am confident that we can build truly impactful technology solutions, improve care delivery, and make a meaningful difference on human lives across the world.”

Established in 2005, CitiusTech develops software and technology solutions for more than 140 leading health care and life sciences organizations.
