Join us as a Sr DevOps engineer on a team that supports our production infrastructure.

  • Build monitors and alerts that keep uptime high and production incidents low (Splunk, Datadog, Cloudwatch)

Participate in a shared on-call rotation that rewards proactivity and de-emphasizes "heroing" (PagerDuty).We handle healthcare data, so you'll observe HIPAA and related laws
