This is a high-leverage senior role with a clear path to growing into a team. Your work will directly return engineering capacity to the organization and make frequent, low-risk releases routine.
You will own our release process end to end for both cloud and on-premises deployments, automating manual steps such as versioning, localization, and zero-downtime (blue-green) cutovers
You will partner with our quality and regulatory teams to design compliant release and rollback processes, so we can ship changes and revert them quickly and safely
You will design and maintain fast, reliable CI/CD pipelines, with sensible container image build strategies and consistent configuration across repositories, using DORA metrics to measure and improve delivery performance
You will bring all of our product lines onto a common release and infrastructure model, including zero-downtime deployments, repository consolidation, and faster pipeline feedback for developers
You will standardize deployment tooling, monitoring, and observability across cloud, on-premises, production, and test environments, including packaging and upgrade paths for customer-hosted installations
You will build the product performance metrics we report as part of ongoing regulatory monitoring
You will automate the release documentation our quality system requires as a regulated medical device company
You will find and fix the root causes of recurring operational issues, tightening feedback loops between support and engineering
You will set long-term direction for how every PathAI service is built, deployed, and operated
Who You Are (Required)
You have 5+ years of experience in DevOps, platform, build/release, or site reliability engineering
You have deep expertise designing and maintaining CI/CD systems (e.g. GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, Kargo)
You have strong experience with containers and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes) and infrastructure as code (Terraform or similar)
You have hands-on experience with a major cloud provider, preferably AWS, as well as deploying and supporting software in customer-hosted, on-premises environments
You are proficient in at least one scripting or programming language such as Python or Go
You have experience implementing zero-downtime deployment strategies such as blue-green or canary releases
You are familiar with monitoring and observability tooling (e.g. Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog)
You have the ability to quickly learn unfamiliar codebases and reason through operational problems in systems you didn't write
You can self-direct: you can define a roadmap, prioritize your own backlog, and communicate progress to engineering leadership
Preferred
You have experience in a regulated environment (FDA, IVDR, ISO 13485, or IEC 62304)
You have experience consolidating repositories into a monorepo or standardizing build tooling across many services
You have a background in healthcare, life sciences, or medical imaging, especially deploying into hospital IT environments with restricted or air-gapped networks
