Senior Systems Engineer We are seeking a Senior Systems Engineer to lead the design, scalability, and reliability of our internal healthcare application platform. This role owns Kubernetes platform standards, CI/CD and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) strategy, operational excellence, and cost optimization. The role also mentors engineers and partners with development and leadership teams. Key Responsibilities Design, own, and evolve the Kubernetes platform architecture for healthcare applications, including cluster strategy, upgrades, and multi-environment standards. Define and enforce standardized deployment patterns using Helm, Kustomize, and GitOps (e.g., Argo CD or Flux). Architect enterprise CI/CD pipelines with built-in security scanning, quality gates, and release governance. Lead IaC strategy with reusable Terraform modules, configuration management, and policy-as-code. Establish observability standards, SLOs/SLIs, and alerting. Lead incident response, root cause analysis, and post-incident reviews. Drive platform security and compliance (HIPAA, audit readiness, secrets management, RBAC, network policies, image hardening). Own cloud cost governance (FinOps): rightsizing, autoscaling, reserved capacity, and cost reporting, with measurable savings. Plan and test disaster recovery, backup, and high availability. Mentor engineers, conduct design and code reviews, and author technical documentation and runbooks. Partner with development, security, and leadership teams on the platform roadmap and technical decisions. Required Skills 5+ years in Systems Engineering, DevOps, SRE, or Platform Engineering, including 3+ years running Kubernetes in production. Expert-level Kubernetes administration (AKS, EKS, or OpenShift), Docker, Kustomize and Helm. Proven experience designing CI/CD at scale with Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, or Jenkins. Advanced Terraform skills (module design, state management) plus Ansible or similar tools. Strong scripting and automation in PowerShell, Python, or Bash. Deep Azure experience (networking, identity, security, cost management); multi-cloud is a plus. Hands-on observability experience with Prometheus, Grafana, Azure Monitor, or ELK. Track record of leading production incidents and delivering reliability improvements. Preferred Skills Experience in healthcare or other regulated environments (HIPAA, HITRUST, SOC 2). GitOps, service mesh (Istio or Linkerd), and policy engines (OPA/Gatekeeper or Kyverno). FinOps practices and cloud cost tooling (Kubecost, Azure Cost Management). Relevant certifications: CKA/CKS, Azure Solutions Architect or DevOps Engineer, Terraform Associate. What Success Looks Like A standardized, self-service Kubernetes platform adopted across application teams. Defined SLOs met consistently, with reduced incident frequency and faster recovery (MTTR). Majority of infrastructure and deployments fully automated through IaC and GitOps. Audit-ready platform security and compliance posture. Documented, measurable infrastructure cost savings. Stronger team capability through mentoring, standards, and documentation.
