About SkinVision
Skin cancer is highly treatable when caught early, but limited access to specialist care and long wait times delay diagnosis, increasing the risk of late-stage cases and driving up treatment costs. SkinVision, founded in Amsterdam in 2012, exists to close that gap.
Responsibilities
•Design, build, and manage AWS-based infrastructure, ensuring high availability, scalability, and cost efficiency.

•Ensure system resilience, security, and performance through automated monitoring and alerting.
•Design and optimize CI/CD pipelines to support rapid, reliable, and safe deployments across environments.
•Manage deployment workflows using Argo CD and Kubernetes.
•Collaborate with developers and ML engineers to streamline build, test, and release processes.
•Integrate automated testing, rollback strategies, and version control into the deployment lifecycle.
•Build a comprehensive observability stack using Datadog for metrics, logs, traces, and alerts.
•Define service-level objectives (SLOs), service-level indicators (SLIs), and dashboards for system performance.
•Proactively detect and resolve performance bottlenecks, capacity issues, and reliability risks.
•Create automated health checks and ensure visibility across production systems.
•Implement security best practices for AWS, containers, and CI/CD pipelines.
•Manage identity, access, and secret handling (IAM, Secrets Manager, Parameter Store).
•Ensure compliance with medical device standards and data privacy regulations (GDPR, HIPAA).
•Partner with the Information Security Officer to embed security controls across infrastructure and deployments.
•Lead incident response and root cause analysis for infrastructure or deployment-related issues.
•Establish SLAs and operational runbooks for production environments.
•Continuously improve system reliability through chaos testing, redundancy, and fault tolerance.
•Mentor engineers on DevOps principles, observability practices, and infrastructure automation.
•Assess the current infrastructure and deployment setup, and form a well-reasoned view of how it should evolve.
•Define and maintain a target architecture for the cloud platform, balancing reliability, scalability, security, and cost.
•Translate the target vision into a practical roadmap and drive its implementation incrementally, alongside day-to-day operations.
•Document and communicate architectural decisions, aligning with engineering and leadership on technical direction.
