About the role

Boston Scientific was recognized by Forbes as one of the Best Workplaces for Engineers in 2026, reflecting a culture where engineers do meaningful work.
This role operates at the intersection of platform engineering, site reliability engineering (SRE), security and application teams, transforming delivery into a product rather than a collection of one-off pipelines and manual processes.
At Boston Scientific, we value collaboration and synergy.

Responsibilities

You will shape how infrastructure, application and platform changes move from source control through build, test, release and production operations, enabling fast delivery without compromising safety, compliance or operational stability.
Build and maintain infrastructure-as-code modules, pipeline templates and Terraform-based compositions supporting landing zones, platform services, application environments and sandbox lifecycle controls.
Standardize build, test and release evidence capture to ensure traceable quality gates, signed artifacts and auditable approvals for all promotion decisions.
Enable safe and resilient delivery through blue-green, canary, rolling and feature flag deployment strategies, including rollback design, smoke validation and change evidence capture.
Partner with architecture, security, SRE, platform engineering and product teams to improve release readiness, reduce lead time and remove friction from compliant delivery.
Design delivery capabilities that incorporate cost control, environment parity and operational resilience, including tagging standards, capacity-aware deployments, backup and disaster recovery validation.
Among other requirements, Boston Scientific maintains specific prohibited substance test requirements for safety-sensitive positions.

Requirements

Bachelor's degree in computer science, information systems, engineering or a related technical field.
Minimum of 4 years' experience designing and implementing reusable delivery platforms, including infrastructure-as-code modules, CI/CD pipeline templates and governed release workflows.
Strong experience with release engineering practices, including environment promotion, deployment gating, versioning, traceability, artifact signing and software provenance.
Proficiency in scripting and automation using Python and Bash, with working knowledge of Terraform for infrastructure provisioning and platform management.
Hands-on experience with Kubernetes-based platforms and containerized workload orchestration.

Nice to have

Master's degree in computer science, engineering, information systems or a related field.
Experience leading platform modernization or DevOps transformation initiatives with measurable improvements in deployment frequency, stability and recovery time.
Experience with GitOps tools such as Flux or Argo CD and progressive delivery or configuration management practices.
Experience with cloud-native observability, distributed tracing, service-level objectives (SLOs) and incident response practices.
Experience with policy-as-code, software supply chain security and provenance controls.
Experience supporting integrated delivery pipelines across applications, infrastructure and data platforms in Azure environments.
Experience with container registries, image scanning, dependency management and secure software delivery practices.
