Company mission

To transform how surgery and cancer care are paid for and delivered to lower costs, improve outcomes, and ensure a superior experience for all.

Role

Who you are

  • This role requires excellent communication skills to work with stakeholders, understanding their needs and conveying progress.
  • The ideal candidate will excel at designing and implementing best-practice IaC solutions, automating the deployment, scaling, and management of application infrastructure, and maintaining systems to meet company needs
  • 7+ years of experience working with cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and/or site reliability engineering
  • 5+ years of experience working with container orchestration tools (e.g. ECS, EKS) as well as the supporting deployment models and monitoring/observability of them
  • Expertise in implementing DevOps culture, fostering collaboration between development and operations teams
  • Experienced in designing monitoring solutions around cloud infrastructure management
  • A passion for working with Engineering teams to help them to identify where and when problems can be solved with cloud infrastructure and pipeline automation
  • Experience optimizing system reliability, scalability, and performance through DevOps methodologies
  • You are motivated by identifying and prioritizing problems as much as you are solving them and you are comfortable sharing your recommendations with team members and leaders
  • You have previous experience scaling platforms on AWS with a thorough understanding of reference architectures, showcasing your ability to design and implement cloud solutions that align with industry best practices
  • Preferred Industry Certifications include: AWS Certified Solutions Architect, Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA), Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD), Docker Certified Associate, HashiCorp Terraform Associate
  • Your previous platforms have good uptime and don’t require the CEO to call us to tell us everything is down with monitoring tools like New Relic and CloudWatch
  • You enjoy coaching up and learning from Engineering partners to help both sides to strike the right balance between resilience/maintainability and roadmap objectives
  • You have interpersonal skills and are empathetic, courteous, and friendly
  • You have experience in the healthcare space, or another highly-regulated industry (this will get us more than excited, TBH)
  • You can adjust to a steady stream of crazy and changing requirements because a lot of the time we don’t really know what we are doing so we have to iterate
  • Note that we left out all of the other nonsense and standard gibberish you see in every JD, so please tell us you read this far. You will get points for it. Seriously

What the job involves

  • As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you will be primarily responsible for bridging development and operations through collaboration, infrastructure as code (IaC), automation, and systems maintenance
  • Additionally, you will lead incident response and root cause analysis efforts to ensure quick issue resolution and prevention
  • Beyond these core responsibilities, you will be expected to integrate security best practices into our infrastructure lifecycle, ensuring compliance with data protection regulations.
  • You will also be responsible for comprehensive documentation of technical procedures, configurations, and deployed solution architectures. This role reports directly to the DevOps Engineering Manager
  • Work with a diverse group of people from a wide variety of backgrounds that value inclusion and openness
  • Hold yourself and others accountable to spending that extra 10% on a project to deliver great documentation in addition to the functionality itself
  • Relish working with your team and cross-functionally with members from other teams to both prevent and solve problems that impact our patients
  • Be a peer leader and expert on our cloud-based infrastructure platform that powers Carrum Health and take it to the next level of maturity while keeping it dead simple
  • Secure everything we do and keep it as a driving force behind how you think with a desire to do even more to improve our systems
  • Have a direct impact on the technical direction and product roadmap of the company
  • Take ownership of the code you develop and release your work product frequently into the production environment
  • Write great documentation so that others know how to best utilize the components you build and to remind your future self
  • Channel your inner product manager through well-written stories to inform our backlog and create great products

Our take

The prevailing model for surgical and cancer care in the US is extremely profitable for providers but drives abysmal health outcomes. Expensive surgeries and tests are highly incentivized which leads to unnecessary procedures and colossal bills. Carrum Health was founded to address this, providing value-based surgical and cancer treatment guidance and coordination to employers offering healthcare to their workforce.

Carrum Health partners with select healthcare providers to allow employers to address acute care scenarios - devastating illnesses and injuries which account for almost half of all employer insurance spend. By focusing on outcomes rather than on profits, it greatly reduces the amount of procedures required - by up to 30% - and saves almost 50% of spend per episode while delivering vastly improved health outcomes. This has led to it building an impressive customer base including major enterprises such as Prudential, Sodexo and United Airlines.

Carrum Health has recently closed a Series B round led by OMERS Growth Equity. The company intends to invest in its oncology services with an aim to becoming the default cancer care provider for all employers. It is also developing its surgical capabilities, allowing it to deliver an increased level of care as more American companies join its service. Its value-based approach clearly has vast appeal and is only going to gain more traction in the years to come.
