Director Engineering, PCS IoMT Core

Job Description Summary

GE Health Care’s Patient Care Solutions business is building a unified Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) Platform that spans device, edge, and cloud to enable hospitals and caregivers to deliver the best care across the critical care continuum.

The IoMT Platform provides secure, scalable connectivity, data and computing solutions that manage mission‑critical workflows across PCS — from bedside monitors to cloud — into one harmonious solution for customers and developers.

The Director, IoMT Core is a technically grounded leadership role responsible for the platform services that form the backbone of PCS device‑to‑edge‑to‑cloud connectivity. The role includes ownership of the Axone SDK and core runtime microservices that deliver message routing, durability, configuration management, serviceability, observability, and lifecycle management for mission‑critical medical devices.

• Partner with principals and architects to align the technical roadmap with business objectives, program commitments, and the broader IoMT Platform architecture.
• Prioritize the team’s technical investments to balance program delivery needs with platform modernization and long‑term architectural goals.
• Drive contract‑first API design with explicit versioning and lifecycle governance so that SDK components and platform services provide consistent, well‑documented integration points for product teams.
• Manage relationships with key software suppliers and technology partners, ensuring vendor‑provided components meet platform quality, performance, and roadmap alignment requirements.
• Understand architectural trade‑offs and represent them credibly to business and program stakeholders.

• Deliver reliable, well‑tested platform services on the cadence established by the IoMT release train, meeting commitments made through the portfolio governance process.
• Balance new feature development, platform modernization, technical debt reduction, and defect resolution across the core services portfolio.
• Implement platform lifecycle‑management capabilities that enable seamless deployment, configuration, and updates of core services across edge and cloud environments.
• Maintain backward compatibility and clear deprecation paths for core services, minimizing disruption to consuming product teams.
• Participate in portfolio‑level prioritization with IoMT product, program, and operations teams, representing core services capacity and trade‑offs transparently.

• Coach and model technical excellence, collaboration, and continuous learning for the team.
• 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—including code review, design review, testing standards, and documentation—to ensure high‑quality, maintainable platform services.
• Attract and retain strong engineering talent by creating an environment that encourages meaningful work, skill growth, and visible impact on patient care.

• Ensure the SDK and APIs provide a clear, productive developer experience for internal product teams building on the IoMT Platform.
• Own the quality of SDK documentation, integration guides, and reference examples that enable efficient integration with core platform services.
• 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 to accelerate delivery, improve code quality, and reduce manual effort.

• Ensure core platform services meet the reliability and performance expectations of life‑critical healthcare workflows.
• Drive observability as a first‑class capability, producing telemetry, tracing, and diagnostic data 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…
