As a Principal DevOps Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in accelerating our software development lifecycle, enhancing our cloud infrastructure, and ensuring the highest level of security and compliance in our deployment processes. Your expertise will bridge the gap between complex medical software development and scalable, robust cloud solutions, driving efficiency and reliability across all our engineering operations.

The ideal candidate has extensive experience in designing, implementing, and managing DevOps practices within the healthcare, medical device, or robotics software industry. This includes deep familiarity with AWS cloud services, proficiency in programming languages such as Python and C , and a proven track record of architecting, implementing, and optimizing scalable CI/CD pipelines for complex software applications. They should also be well-versed in various build systems, including CMake, ROS/Catkin, and/or Bazel, enabling them to support and enhance complex development ecosystems effectively. They should have an in-depth knowledge and experience with Docker and Kubernetes for containerization and orchestration, along with proficiency in JFrog Artifactory for artifact management. Experience in building monitoring dashboards and pipelines using Grafana or similar systems is crucial for ensuring operational visibility and performance optimization.

Experience with regulatory compliance and security protocols specific to medical software (e.g., HIPAA, FDA regulations) is preferred but not required. The ideal candidate is a problem-solver at heart, adept at diagnosing and resolving system bottlenecks, ensuring high availability, and optimizing performance. With a passion for continuous learning and improvement, they stay ahead of the curve, leveraging the latest technologies and methodologies to drive efficiency and innovation within the development pipeline.
