About Corvita BiomedicalCorvita Biomedical Inc. is a mission-driven medical device startup transforming neonatal healthcare globally. We are developing the ARK Incubator – a portable, AI-powered, dual-infant neonatal life support system designed to democratize access to intensive care for premature and critically ill newborns. Our technology addresses the global crisis where millions of infants die annually due to lack of access to proper neonatal intensive care, particularly in underserved communities, rural areas, and humanitarian settings.

As a member of our team, you'll have the unique opportunity to directly impact infant mortality rates and health outcomes on a global scale.

The OpportunityWe are seeking an exceptional Cloud Engineer to architect and build the cloud infrastructure that powers the ARK Incubator ecosystem. This role is the backbone of our connected medical device platform – you will design and implement the data pipelines, cloud services, and infrastructure that enable real-time monitoring, telehealth capabilities, and our NOA-AI diagnostic assistant to function reliably across thousands of deployed devices worldwide.

As our Cloud Engineer, you will be responsible for building a scalable, secure, and highly available platform that ingests continuous streams of vital sign data, powers AI-driven analytics, and enables healthcare providers to monitor and manage premature infants remotely. Your infrastructure will be the foundation upon which life-saving decisions are made – reliability is not optional, it is essential.

Key ResponsibilitiesCloud Infrastructure & Architecture

- Design and implement scalable cloud architecture using AWS, Azure, or GCP to support thousands of connected ARK Incubators globally
- Build infrastructure-as-code solutions using Terraform, CloudFormation, or Pulumi for reproducible, version-controlled deployments
- Implement containerization strategies using Docker and orchestration with Kubernetes for microservices deployment
- Design multi-region architectures ensuring high availability and disaster recovery for life-critical medical data
- Optimize cloud costs while maintaining performance and reliability standards

Data Backbone & Pipeline Development

- Build real-time data ingestion pipelines capable of processing continuous streams of vital signs, sensor readings, and device telemetry from deployed incubators
- Design and implement time-series databases optimized for medical data storage, retrieval, and analysis
- Create data lakes and warehouses for long-term storage supporting clinical research and machine learning initiatives




- Implement event-driven architectures using message queuing systems (Kafka, RabbitMQ, AWS SQS) for reliable data processing
- Build data validation, transformation, and quality assurance pipelines ensuring data integrity for clinical decision-making

Machine Learning Infrastructure

- Design and deploy infrastructure supporting machine learning model serving and inference pipelines
- Build scalable compute infrastructure for AI model training, validation, and continuous improvement
- Implement MLOps pipelines for automated model deployment, monitoring, and rollback capabilities
- Create real-time alerting systems that process AI predictions and deliver clinical notifications with sub-second latency
- Support integration of machine vision workloads including video stream processing and image analysis

DevOps & Site Reliability

- Establish CI/CD pipelines for automated testing, deployment, and infrastructure changes
- Implement comprehensive monitoring, alerting, and observability using tools like Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK stack
- Design and maintain staging and production environments with proper isolation and testing procedures
- Build automated scaling and self-healing infrastructure to maintain uptime for life-critical systems
