Director Engineering, PCS IoMT Core

Key Responsibilities

• Technical Leadership
• Partner with the principals and architects within the organization to drive technical direction and architecture decisions.
• Ensure the technical roadmap aligns with business objectives, program commitments, and the broader IoMT Platform architecture.
• Drive contract-first API design with explicit versioning and lifecycle governance.
• Manage relationships with key software suppliers and technology partners to ensure vendor-provided components meet platform quality, performance, and roadmap alignment requirements.
• Be technically engaged to understand the tradeoffs the architects are making and represent them credibly to business and program stakeholders.

Service Delivery

• Ensure the team delivers reliable, well-tested platform services on the cadence established by the IoMT release train.
• Manage the balance between new feature development, platform modernization, technical debt reduction, and defect resolution across the core services portfolio.
• Drive platform lifecycle management capabilities that enable seamless deployment, configuration, and updates of core services across edge and cloud environments.
• Ensure core services maintain backward compatibility and clear deprecation paths, minimizing disruption to consuming product teams.
• Participate in portfolio-level prioritization with IoMT Product, Program and Operations teams, representing Core services capacity and tradeoffs transparently.

Team Building & Coaching

• Be a coach and role model, setting the standard for technical excellence, collaboration, and continuous learning.
• Foster a culture of engineering ownership where team members take pride in the quality, reliability, and usability of the services they build.
• Establish and maintain engineering practices (code review, design review, testing standards, documentation) that ensure high-quality, maintainable platform services.
• Attract and retain strong engineering talent by creating an environment where people do meaningful work, grow their skills, and see the impact of their contributions on patient care.

Developer Experience & Enablement

• Own the quality of SDK documentation, integration guides, and reference examples that enable product teams to integrate with core platform services efficiently.
• Champion modern CI/CD practices within the Core services team, reducing manual steps and accelerating the build-test-deploy cycle for both edge and cloud targets.
• Drive adoption of AI-assisted development workflows across the team to accelerate delivery, improve code quality, and reduce manual effort in design, implementation, testing, and documentation.

Operational Excellence & Reliability

• Ensure core platform services meet the reliability and performance expectations of life-critical healthcare workflows.
• Drive observability as a first-class capability, ensuring core services produce the telemetry, tracing, and diagnostic data needed for rapid issue resolution across device, edge, and cloud boundaries.
• Partner with the IoMT Operations team on platform verification, ensuring core services are thoroughly tested at the integration level before release.
• Support L4 engineering escalations related to core services, ensuring the team provides timely, effective resolution and feeds learnings back into platform improvements.
• Collaborate with external partners to manage dependencies and ensure partner-provided capabilities meet platform requirements.
