This is a rare opportunity to help shape transformative technology at the intersection of science, software, and sight—driving real-world impact in a field where every data point can influence patient vision.
Primary Purpose
We’re seeking an experienced and strategic Engineering Manager to lead and grow a multidisciplinary software team developing next-generation imaging and certification platforms for ophthalmic clinical trials. You will own team execution, product delivery, architecture quality, and cross-functional collaboration with product, imaging science, QA, and clinical operations.
This is a leadership role that requires both technical depth and strong people management skills, with the ability to scale a high-performing team and deliver mission-critical, cloud-based solutions in a regulated environment.
Responsibilities:- Lead and manage a cross-functional team of frontend, backend, and imaging engineers delivering SaaS-based clinical applications.
- Drive software architecture decisions, ensuring secure, scalable, and maintainable systems aligned with clinical workflows and imaging needs.
- Collaborate with product owners, UX designers, QA leads, and DevOps to ensure timely, high-quality product releases.
- Establish and enforce engineering best practices, coding standards, and review protocols to ensure code quality and system performance.
- Oversee sprint planning, backlog management, and agile delivery across multiple product lines.
- Provide technical leadership on cloud-native frameworks (AWS, serverless), image processing pipelines, and AI/ML integration.
- Hire, mentor, and develop top engineering talent while fostering a culture of accountability, innovation, and continuous improvement.
- Manage release timelines, technical dependencies, and system documentation for internal and external audits.
- Engage with clinical and regulatory stakeholders to ensure solutions meet compliance requirements (e.g., HIPAA, 21 CFR Part 11).
- Identify risks and mitigation strategies proactively across architecture, security, and delivery.
· Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
· 10–12 years of experience in software engineering, including 3+ years in people management or tech leadership roles.
· Proven track record delivering cloud-native, web-based platforms in healthcare, medtech, or life sciences.
· Strong understanding of frontend technologies (ReactJS, GraphQL), backend systems (Node.js, AWS Lambda), and database architectures (Aurora, DynamoDB).
· Experience overseeing imaging platforms or clinical tools is a strong plus.
· Familiarity with modern DevOps practices (CI/CD, containerization, infrastructure-as-code).
· Deep knowledge of data privacy, security, and regulatory frameworks in digital health.
· Demonstrated ability to grow, coach, and retain engineering talent in a high-performance setting.
- Strong execution mindset with a balance of strategic thinking and hands-on problem-solving.
- Excellent communicator, capable of aligning engineering outcomes with business and clinical goals.
- Passion for building mission-driven software that improves clinical research and patient care.
- Adaptive leader comfortable operating in ambiguity and scaling systems in a fast-paced environment.
