📋 Description

• Design, build, and maintain AWS infrastructure as code using Terraform and Pulumi, with an emphasis on reusable modules, safe change management, and multi-account/multi-environment patterns • Operate and evolve container platforms across ECS and EC2, including cluster architecture, autoscaling, networking, and cost optimization • Drive our migration to microservices: decompose existing services, establish golden paths for service scaffolding, CI/CD, and deployment, and partner with product engineering teams through the transition • Build internal tooling and automation in a general-purpose language (Python, Go, or TypeScript) — this role writes real software, not just configuration • Own and advance our observability practice in Datadog: SLOs, dashboards, alerting strategy, distributed tracing, and driving down noise so on-call is humane • Lead incident response and post-incident reviews; turn findings into durable platform improvements • Mentor engineers, review designs and code, and set technical direction for platform standards across teams • Champion security, compliance, and reliability best practices appropriate to a healthcare environment
