Our AI-powered data and imaging curation platform enables the analysis of clinical imaging and other healthcare data, helping our customers bring treatments to market, faster.
Qureight’s mission is to accelerate clinical trials and ensure breakthroughs in lung and heart disease reach patients without delay. Our AI-powered data and imaging curation platform enables the analysis of clinical imaging and other healthcare data, helping our customers bring treatments to market, faster.
We’re looking for talented people who want their work to matter. With offices in Cambridge and London, you’ll join our multidisciplinary team of clinicians, scientists, and engineers. What unites us is our open culture, continuous learning mindset, and a shared mission to help biopharma run faster, smarter trials.
The DevOps team operates an infrastructure imaging platform on multiple clouds that supports a SaaS product used by our global customers to run clinical trials. Qureight’s imaging platform is validated software operating under GxP, 21 CFR Part 11 and ISO/IEC 27001 requirements. The underlying infrastructure must therefore be secure, reproducible and fully auditable, without compromising performance.
We also maintain machine learning experiment and development infrastructure for our Science team.
As a DevOps Engineer, you will maintain and build on this infrastructure, working with the Platform, Data Engineering and Science teams to deploy and monitor our production, development and research environments.
You’ll work with AWS, Kubernetes, infrastructure as code and GitOps, supporting both the production SaaS product and the machine learning environments where our scientists train and develop models.
You’ll join a small, hands-on team led by our Head of DevOps, where you’ll have real ownership of the systems you work on. The overall goal is to keep improving our practices and processes for deployment, security and reliability at scale, while meeting the change control and documentation standards expected of a regulated software platform.
We will also consider part-time applications for this role (minimum 0.8 FTE).
