About the Job

Requirements

  • Strong experience with cloud batch, queueing, and orchestration; storage systems; and data pipeline reliability.
  • Experience shipping production systems that handle large data volumes and failure-prone networks.
  • A practical security mindset, including least privilege, secrets, and audit logging, and comfort operating in compliance-constrained environments.

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement secure cloud pipelines that ingest very large scan datasets of multiple terabytes reliably and resumably.
  • Build orchestration for GPU-accelerated reconstruction and analysis with strong retry semantics, idempotency, and cost controls.
  • Define end-to-end data lifecycle for medical imaging, including raw, intermediate, and derived artifacts, retention policies, and reproducibility.
  • Implement security and compliance primitives appropriate for HIPAA and protected health information, including encryption in transit and at rest, key management, least privilege, audit logs, and access reviews.
  • Build operational tooling, including monitoring, alerting, runbooks, and incident-driven improvements for a growing device fleet.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience building reliable data pipelines at scale, including queues, orchestration, resumable uploads, and GPU batch execution, with strong observability.
  • Experience applying security and privacy by default, including encryption, least-privilege access, auditing, and practical HIPAA and protected health information guardrails.
  • Experience owning backend details such as schemas and migrations, cost controls, retries, and runbooks.
  • Understanding of compute tradeoffs across hardware options and ability to specify appropriate cloud resources.

About the Company

Midjourney

AI text-to-image generation via Discord bot

Midjourney operates as an independent research lab offering an AI image-generation service. It uses a proprietary text-to-image model accessed through a Discord bot, where users can input textual prompts to generate, refine, and upscale digital art. The service is in open beta and runs on a subscription model with multiple tiers that determine access and features. The company is self-funded and does not rely on venture capital, appealing to artists, designers, and creative enthusiasts who want to explore AI-generated art and creative tooling. Unlike many competitors, it emphasizes a self-funded, Discord-based user experience with a focus on community and iterative refinement of images through prompts and upscaling. Its goal is to provide accessible, scalable AI-powered image creation to a wide range of creative professionals and hobbyists while advancing the field of generative art.
