Job Description Summary

We are looking for an experienced Director of Software Engineering to provide strategic and technical leadership for our software engineering organization. This leader will be responsible for building and scaling high-performing engineering teams, defining and executing technology strategy, and delivering secure, reliable, scalable, and customer-focused software platforms and products.

The Director will work closely with Product Management, Architecture, Security, Quality, Operations, and business stakeholders to translate business and customer priorities into an executable engineering roadmap. The role requires a strong combination of people leadership, technical depth, product mindset, operational excellence, and execution discipline, with the ability to move effectively between long-term strategy and day-to-day engineering challenges.

The role should also drive modern engineering practices, including cloud-native architecture, DevSecOps, automation, observability, SRE, and AI-assisted software development.

GE HealthCare is a leading global medical technology and digital solutions innovator. Our purpose is to create a world where healthcare has no limits. Unlock your ambition, turn ideas into world changing realities, and join an organization where every voice makes a difference — and every difference builds a healthier world.

Job Description

Engineering & Technology Leadership:

  • Define and execute the engineering and technology strategy aligned with product and business priorities.
  • Provide technical leadership across cloud platforms, distributed systems, microservices, APIs, data platforms, and enterprise software architecture.
  • Partner with architects and senior technical leaders on architecture, design, technology choices, scalability, security, reliability, and modernization.
  • Establish strong engineering practices covering architecture reviews, coding standards, automated testing, CI/CD, release management, observability, and production operations.
  • Drive appropriate adoption of AI/GenAI and AI-assisted software development to improve engineering productivity, quality, automation, and developer experience.

Product & Business Leadership:

  • Partner closely with Product Management to shape product strategy, roadmaps, priorities, and investment decisions.
  • Translate customer and business needs into scalable engineering solutions and measurable outcomes.
  • Balance new product capabilities with investments in platform modernization, technical debt, security, reliability, and operational excellence.
  • Establish engineering metrics that connect execution to customer value, quality, speed, reliability, adoption, and business outcomes.
  • Influence senior stakeholders and communicate technology strategy, trade-offs, risks, and investment priorities clearly.

People & Organization Leadership:

  • Lead and develop Engineering Managers, Architects, Principal Engineers, and software engineering teams.
  • Build a strong leadership pipeline through coaching, mentoring, succession planning, and intentional development of emerging leaders.
  • Attract, hire, retain, and develop high-performing engineering talent.
  • Build an engineering culture centered on ownership, accountability, collaboration, innovation, inclusion, and continuous improvement.
  • Define appropriate organizational structures and operating models as products and platforms scale.
  • Create an environment in which teams can make decisions independently while remaining aligned with broader architectural and business direction.

Delivery & Operational Excellence:

  • Own engineering execution across the software development lifecycle, from planning and architecture through release and production operation.
  • Improve delivery predictability through measurable engineering KPIs and disciplined planning, dependency, risk, and capacity management.
  • Establish strong DevSecOps, SRE, observability, incident management, RCA, and continuous-improvement practices.
  • Drive availability, resiliency, performance, scalability, and disaster-recovery expectations appropriate to enterprise and healthcare workloads.
  • Champion automation to reduce manual work, improve quality, and increase engineering velocity.
  • Drive cloud and infrastructure cost optimization alongside performance and reliability.

Quality, Security & Compliance:

  • Embed security, privacy, quality, and compliance throughout the software development lifecycle.
  • Partner with Security, Quality, and Regulatory teams to establish effective engineering controls without unnecessarily slowing delivery.
  • Champion secure design, threat modeling, vulnerability management, automated security testing, and appropriate release governance.
  • Ensure software engineering practices support the requirements of regulated healthcare environments where applicable.

Required Qualifications:

  • 15+ years of experience in software engineering, with significant experience building and operating enterprise-scale software products or platforms.
  • 5+ years of engineering leadership experience, including leadership of managers and/or multiple engineering teams.
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Strong technical foundation in software architecture, distributed systems, cloud-native development, APIs, microservices, and modern software engineering.
  • Proven experience building, scaling, and transforming engineering organizations.
  • Strong knowledge of public cloud technologies, preferably AWS and/or Azure, including cloud security, scalability, resiliency, and cost optimization.
  • Experience with DevOps/DevSecOps practices, CI/CD, infrastructure automation, observability, and production operations.
  • Demonstrated ability to partner effectively with Product Management and translate business priorities into engineering strategy and execution.
  • Experience developing engineering leaders and creating high-performing, accountable teams.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder-management skills, including the ability to influence senior business and technology leaders.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead through ambiguity, organizational change, and complex technology transformation.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience leading enterprise SaaS, platform engineering, cloud modernization, or shared technology platforms.
  • Experience in healthcare, MedTech, or another regulated industry.
  • Experience with AI/GenAI, agentic AI, AI-assisted development, RAG, or intelligent engineering automation.
  • Experience leading globally distributed engineering organizations.
  • Knowledge of SRE practices, SLIs/SLOs, observability, resiliency engineering, and FinOps/cloud cost optimization.
  • Experience managing engineering budgets, external partners, vendors, and technology investments.
  • Track record of modernizing legacy environments while continuing to deliver customer and business commitments.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
