Software Engineer, Cloud Engineer - Software

Job Description Summary

As a Software Engineer for our Science and Technology office, you’ll work on the cutting edge of cloud technology as you scope and lead complex technical projects, laying the groundwork for early‑stage products to iterate and scale. You’ll help design, build, and maintain user‑facing experiences, APIs, scalable distributed services, and systems—driving software engineering best practices and delivering high quality software on tight schedules.

The work will be part of, but not limited to, the projects that are part of the recently created Wisconsin Tech Hub. At GE Health Care, we are committed to bringing cloud‑based solutions for our customers: all aspects of computing services across the cloud and edge—servers, databases, storage, networking, analytics, software, and intelligence—are delivered over the Internet. Our Science & Technology organization harnesses technology to make health care more precise, personalized, and accessible for everyone.

From driving the overall clinical research and patient‑centric innovation strategy to delivering new digital and machine learning capabilities, we’re committed to leading digital transformation, improving outcomes for patients and providers, and creating a world where health care has no limits.

Work with a cross‑functional team to create software products under approved architecture and the roadmap set by product management. Take ownership of the implementation of individual software components, with a strong emphasis on quality, test‑driven development, and sound engineering practices. Participate in software design reviews, conduct peer code reviews, and provide input and feedback to other members of the development team.

Design, implement, test, deploy, and maintain innovative software solutions to transform service performance, durability, cost, and security. Use best practices to ensure a high standard of quality for all team deliverables.
