📋 Description

• Drive the evolution of software development practices as part of the IronMan acquisition, and beyond the Ironman pilot. • Embed standardized processes, scalable capabilities, and modern tools across every GE HealthCare segment, ultimately improving quality and velocity across the company’s entire new‑product pipeline. • Serve as the day-to-day leader for the software development Steering Committee, orchestrating priorities, decisions, and communications across engineering, quality, regulatory, product management, and commercial teams. • Strengthens organizational alignment by delivering clear, timely communications that enable leaders to understand strategic direction and progress, while ensuring the wider organization is aware of key objectives and outcomes. • Define and deploy a medtech-adapted DORA metric stack to measure software performance and flow, with targets that include critical security and quality patches released in under 10 days where applicable. • Establish a process-agile PRD approach that supports iterative learning cycles, clear scope control, and traceability to user and clinical needs. • Operationalize a process-agile QMS guided by AAMI TIR45 for SaMD and SiMD, aligning design controls and documentation with lean, risk-based software practices. • Stand up the capabilities and tooling ecosystem that enables continuous integration, automated testing, secure DevOps, SBOM and vulnerability management, and compliant release orchestration. • Act as the overall technical liaison for continuity across segments and platforms, ensuring architectural coherence, reuse, and integration quality. • Drive engagement with all teams and stakeholders, facilitating adoption through coaching, office hours, playbooks, and communities of practice. • Guide portfolio planning and the digital NPI process so that release cadences and decision points enable timely, industry-standard delivery while preserving patient safety and regulatory compliance. • Own the plan to extend outcomes beyond the consultant engagement and beyond the IronMan pilot to sustained enterprise adoption, including change management, training, and governance.

🎯 Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, or related field; advanced degree preferred. • 10+ years in software development for medical devices or regulated health software, including SaMD and SiMD experience. • Demonstrated mastery of modern software development life cycles and DevSecOps, including CI/CD, automated testing, and release management in regulated contexts. • Previous experience as a lead software integrator or architect on major GE HealthCare NPIs, with hands-on understanding of segment-specific architectures and constraints. • People leadership experience managing software engineering teams and cross-functional program leadership across quality, regulatory, clinical, and product management. • Proven ability to drive enterprise-scale change through standards, governance, and coaching, with measurable improvements in flow, quality, and reliability. • Strong communication, influencing, and stakeholder management skills across executive, technical, and field audiences.
