Engineering Leader – Clinical Data Lake Initiative

Job Description SummaryThe Engineering Leader will lead the design, architecture, and delivery of GE HealthCare’s Clinical Data Lake — the foundational AI platform that will empower scientists, researchers, and engineers across GEHC to accelerate AI, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Generative AI, and Agentic AI development using multimodal data.
This role will lead a small, high-performing engineering team focused on building the data and compute infrastructure that transforms text, imaging, video, waveform, EHR, genomics, and operational data into AI-ready assets. The Clinical Data Lake will serve as the central environment where data scientists and AI researchers can access, experiment, train, and deploy models across device, edge, and cloud environments.
Working in close collaboration with AI science, product, and platform engineering leaders, this role bridges innovation and scalability — enabling model and agent development that supports clinical, operational, and business transformation.
