Job Description Summary

The Senior Director of Engineering will lead engineering alignment and delivery for enterprise imaging products across both cloud and on‑premises deployment models.

• Lead cross‑team alignment and execution across multiple engineering groups delivering cloud and on‑prem releases.
• Partner with Product and Architecture to translate priorities into realistic roadmaps, milestones, and release plans.
• Drive dependency management across teams; identify risks early, remove roadblocks, and escalate with clear options and recommendations.
• Promote consistent engineering quality practices (test strategy, release readiness criteria, defect management) and ensure deliverables meet expectations.
• Ensure security, privacy, and compliance considerations are embedded in delivery practices (e.g., HIPAA/GDPR where applicable).
• Establish a practical operating rhythm for status, risk/issue review, and release readiness reporting to leadership.
• Lead and develop engineering leaders and teams through change; support hiring and talent development as needed.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related STEM field (or equivalent practical experience).

• Experience delivering enterprise software across cloud and on‑prem deployment models (release management, deployments/upgrades, customer operations).
• Demonstrated success leading complex cross‑team initiatives that require integrating systems, processes, and delivery execution.
• Strong technical fluency in modern engineering practices (CI/CD, automation, observability, reliability, and secure development).
• Proven ability to influence and communicate effectively with senior leaders and cross‑functional stakeholders.

Preferred Qualifications / Desired Characteristics

• Experience in healthcare IT and/or imaging systems, including PACS and/or VNA solutions.
• Familiarity with interoperability standards and integration concepts (e.g., DICOM, HL7/FHIR concepts, APIs and identity patterns).
• Experience with M&A integration planning and/or technical due diligence.
• Experience leading distributed global teams and working effectively in matrixed environments.
• Knowledge of healthcare security and privacy expectations and regulated software delivery practices.
