Company mission

Prenuvo's mission is to transform the medical paradigm from reactive to proactive, ridding the world of advanced disease by detecting it early when treatment is easiest and most successful.

Role

Who you are

  • 10+ years of experience in DevOps, SRE, or infrastructure engineering, including recent senior/staff-level roles with high-impact ownership
  • Proven experience with Terraform at scale (modules, orchestration, testing), ideally across multiple cloud environments (AWS preferred)
  • Familiarity with container orchestration technologies such as Amazon ECS, Kubernetes (K8s), and Serverless frameworks, including experience deploying, scaling, and managing containerized applications in production environments
  • Strong Python programming skills with the ability to build tools, automate systems, and contribute to application codebases, coupled with a solid understanding of application internals and deployment considerations
  • Deep experience with GitHub Actions for CI/CD— including custom workflows, reusable actions, and multi-environment pipelines
  • Solid understanding of network architecture, security principles, and cloud native infrastructure patterns
  • Hands-on experience with monitoring and observability, especially with Datadog, and the ability to interpret metrics/logs to guide system improvements
  • Strategic thinker with a bias toward action—you’re ready to step in and take the reins
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills—you’re comfortable navigating technical conversations across engineering, security, and leadership

Desirable

  • Background working in platform engineering, developer experience, or infrastructure leadership roles
  • Experience navigating the challenges of a startup transitioning into a scale-up, including evolving systems, processes, and team structures
  • Experience mentoring or guiding teams to turn projects around
  • Knowledge of compliance and risk management in regulated environments (HIPAA, SOC2, ISO27001, etc.)

What the job involves

  • We’re looking for a Staff DevOps / Site Reliability Engineer to take technical ownership of our infrastructure stack, accelerate execution of key platform initiatives, and bring strong hands-on leadership to our DevOps and SRE practices
  • Our Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) foundation is in place, but we’re entering a critical phase where senior-level coordination and ownership are needed to sharpen direction, improve execution, and mature the platform
  • You'll play a vital role in bridging the gap between development and infrastructure, contributing to both code and architecture decisions, and ensuring we build a secure, reliable, and scalable environment
  • This is a high-impact opportunity for someone who wants to lead through doing, drive cross-functional progress, and influence long-term strategy while executing quickly
  • Help reshape the world through proactive healthcare while working with cutting-edge technology and high performing teams with deep expertise - join us to make a difference in people’s lives!
  • Take technical ownership of our Terraform-based IaC platform—assess the current state, define next steps, and drive delivery of improvements across environments
  • Work closely with engineering teams to design and implement cloud-native architectures, optimize deployment pipelines, and contribute directly to Python-based codebases where needed
  • Strengthen and scale our CI/CD processes using GitHub Actions, including artifact packaging, environment promotion, and automated testing/release workflows
  • Shape and execute our global infrastructure strategy, including multi-region deployment, scalability, and resiliency planning
  • Implement and improve disaster recovery planning, incident response, and high availability for critical systems
  • Design and enforce cloud networking and security best practices, including IAM, VPC architecture, and secrets management
  • Drive improvements in observability and performance monitoring using Datadog APM, metrics, logs, and alerting to proactively identify and resolve issues
  • Collaborate across teams to implement and evangelize SRE principles, including SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets
  • Serve as a technical mentor and thought partner, helping level up others while delivering meaningful improvements yourself

Application process

  • As part of the hiring process, successful candidates will undergo a background check in compliance to applicable federal, provincial, and state rules

Our take

The quantified self movement is gaining momentum, especially in the health and fitness sector. Wearable health monitors, sleep trackers, and genetic testing have all firmly entered the mainstream, and body MRI scanning service Prenuvo is taking this concept to the next level. Prenuvo’s whole body diagnostic imaging offers customers a comprehensive picture of their body, whilst screening for 500+ major conditions and cancers.

The medical benefits of approaching these diseases proactively, as opposed to reactively, are substantial. Customers will be able to catch warning signs early, meaning treatment is likely to be less invasive, with a higher success rate. Unfortunately North America, like many regions, has yet to make substantial investments in preventative healthcare. This just makes companies like Prenuvo, and the VCs who fund them, increasingly necessary.

This funding, however has been substantial, and having closed a Series A funding round in 2022 Prenuvo has moved swiftly to open new clinics across the United States. Its next step is to improve the accessibility of its service - currently scans cost about $1000, but improvements in the technology and working processes will cut the cost by two thirds or more and greatly expand Prenuvo's addressable market.
