A publicly traded, global medical technology company is developing AI-powered, image-guided surgical platforms used in operating rooms worldwide. Their Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) solutions support surgeons with real-time guidance during orthopaedic procedures. As they scale their regulated software platform, they are hiring a Senior DevOps & Release Engineer to own the Linux infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and release processes behind it.

• Implement security controls, including least-privilege access, secrets management, and audit logging
• Support FDA inspections, ISO audits, and validation activities through clear documentation
• Support lifecycle management of ML/AI inference components, including versioning and traceability
• Mentor junior DevOps and platform engineers

What you'll bring:

• 6+ years of experience in DevOps, Release Engineering, or Systems Engineering
• Deep Linux administration, ideally Debian or Ubuntu
• Bare-metal or on-premise systems experience
• Python, Bash, and C++ programming
• Hands-on experience with Jenkins, TeamCity, or a similar CI/CD platform
• GitHub administration and source control governance
• Experience in a regulated industry such as medical devices, healthcare, or life sciences (preferred)
• Familiarity with IEC 62304, ISO 13485, and ISO 14971

This is a chance to be the technical authority for DevOps and release engineering at a company building surgical technology that changes patient outcomes, working at the intersection of engineering, quality, and regulatory compliance.
