Westford, Massachusetts-based MedAcuity partners with leading medtech companies on software development. The company said yesterday that it prioritizes team development and a “quality-first” mindset as it adds two new members to its leadership team.
Raney’s role includes prioritizing humanizing business processes and continuously improving employee training, development, engagement and retention, the company said. She holds more than 25 years of human resource management and people operations experience. Her roles range across multiple industries, including professional and managed services/consulting, clinical research, and managed IT services.
Among her expertise is talent management, policy development, coaching, management training, benefits, and employee communications, MedAcuity said.

We want everyone who works at MedAcuity to feel supported and to be proud of the work we are doing here, and Jeanne has the ideal expertise to lead our people-centric initiatives.”
Sageman’s responsibilities include ensuring the achievement of high standards in the delivery of services and capabilities across MedAcuity’s engineering teams. He brings more than 25 years of quality leadership and quality engineering experience in the medical device industry.
His career includes overseeing quality engineering, leadership and project management support for the development of continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps for diabetes patients at BD. He also oversaw quality operations on laser vision correction systems for Lasik surgery at Abbott.
