Washington Chief Information Officer Jim Weaver will soon step down to take a role as the CIO of North Carolina, both states’ IT departments announced Wednesday.
Weaver, who spent more than three decades serving the Pennsylvania state government, including three years as the statewide chief technology officer, left in 2018 for Washington Technology Solutions, where he was tasked with turning around an organization that had built a reputation with its customer agencies as autocratic and uncommunicative.
The date of Weaver’s transition to become the top official at the North Carolina Department of Information Technology hasn’t been finalized, according to WaTech’s announcement. The state also hasn’t yet named a replacement.
