Sunnybrook Tech Stack
Canada's largest trauma centre and teaching hospital conducting $100M+ in annual research
Sunnybrook operates a 10,000+ person healthcare and research organization across three campuses in Toronto, handling 1.3 million patient visits annually. The hiring profile is heavily weighted toward clinical and research staff (498 of 563 active roles), with only 8 engineering positions — a typical pattern for large teaching hospitals where IT infrastructure runs on established enterprise stacks (Microsoft 365, Azure, Active Directory) rather than custom development. Current adopters of Workday and RayStation suggest ongoing modernization of payroll and oncology treatment planning, though pain points around patient flow delays, inventory obsolescence, and service disruptions indicate operational systems remain under strain.
