A Day in the LifeCareers That Change Lives
At Medtronic, we contribute to human welfare and wellbeing through biomedical engineering. Everyday we’re involved in meaningful work to change people’s lives and health for the better. Now is your chance to join a talented team of infrastructure software engineers focused on providing software development pipelines and frameworks to our research scientists, medical device manufacturing teams, regulatory, IT, marketing, and sales teams across our company. Our small product teams focus on several platforms and pipelines including Kubernetes and container services and technologies, full-stack observability, application CI/CD DevSecOps deployment pipelines, as well as global source code and binary code services.
This position focuses on building a new test harness and associated CI, system, and stress testing of our internally developed frameworks used for deploying and managing our Kubernetes platforms in AWS and internal datacenters; our internal datacenters are found across the globe supporting both manufacturing and enterprise customers.

You will be a part of changing and significantly re-designing an improved testing environment which needs to function and test at the scale and quality we need to provide end-to-end Kubernetes services across a significant number of clusters in on-premise datacenters and in AWS cloud environments.
- Work closely with the development team and provide testing leadership as together you work to create a new test-driven culture and CI testing harness
- Develop a mid-to-long term plan to improve testing around unit, CI, load, scale, and performance testing capabilities against the full Kubernetes deployment pipelines in both AWS and on-premise datacenters
- Develop new automated test services to ensure our full-stack monitoring service works for both the Kubernetes deployment framework and our client applications running in containers on Kubernetes
- Build real-world test plans and cases by developing a rich understanding our diverse user community configurations, use cases, and environments
- Be an integral member of technical staff and help develop, test, deploy, and operate our services 24x7x365 globally
