About The Role

As a DevOps Engineer, you will be accountable for designing, implementing, and optimizing the infrastructure and delivery pipelines that power our life-saving healthcare technology. You will have a mandate to drive significant architectural improvements, eliminate development bottlenecks, and champion infrastructure best practices across our cloud environment. This is a high-impact role for an engineer ready to take ownership of our CI/CD strategy for the future.

What You’ll Do

• Architect and execute a comprehensive overhaul of our existing CI/CD pipelines (leveraging tools like GitHub Actions/Pipelines) to enhance speed, reliability, and security, preparing our delivery process for future growth.
• Proactively identify, diagnose, and resolve complex infrastructure and application issues (performance, availability, scaling) across our production environments (primarily AWS, with exposure to GCP).
• Design and manage infrastructure as code (IaC) using Terraform to provision and maintain resilient, scalable, and cost-effective cloud resources.
• Collaborate closely with software engineering teams to embed SRE principles, optimize application performance, and eradicate developer friction points and bottlenecks.
• Document technical systems, processes, and workflows thoroughly to ensure clarity, maintainability, and operational consistency.

About You

• Experience: 1+ years of experience in DevOps, Infrastructure Engineering, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), or a related discipline.
• AI-Assisted Engineering: Demonstrated experience using modern AI-assisted development tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, or similar) as part of daily engineering workflows.
• CI/CD: Proven expertise in designing, building, and maintaining robust, scalable, and secure CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub, Jenkins, GitLab).
• Cloud Infrastructure: Experience managing production workloads primarily in AWS. Knowledge of GCP is a plus.
• Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Proficiency with Terraform or similar tools for declarative infrastructure management.
• Operational Excellence: Highly skilled in performance tuning, troubleshooting, and root cause analysis across complex cloud platforms. 
• Communication & Collaboration: Exceptional communication skills—verbal and written—with the ability to clearly articulate technical strategy, trade-offs, and complex issues to both technical and non-technical audiences. A proven ability to document complex systems and workflows is required.
• Infrastructure Focus: Strong understanding of cloud infrastructure best practices, with a focus on reliability and cost optimization. Experience working in a regulated environment (e.g., healthcare, finance) is beneficial.
• Ownership & Drive: A proactive approach to identifying system weaknesses and driving projects from concept to production with minimal supervision.

Why You’ll Grow With Us

• Strategic Impact: Lead and own the infrastructure strategy for a growing healthcare technology platform, making high-level architectural decisions.
• Mentorship & Rapid Learning: Accelerate your growth with guidance from experienced architects and the opportunity to lead key technical initiatives.
• Impactful Work: Build the underlying platform stability that directly helps patients access life-saving drugs.
• Agency & Ownership: We provide opportunities to make a direct impact, accelerated by your drive and expertise.
• Vibrant & Supportive Culture: Join a fun, thoughtful, and collaborative remote-first team.
