What We're Looking For

Essential

• 3+ years in an SRE, Platform, or DevOps engineering role
• AWS services: CloudWatch, X-Ray, Lambda, API Gateway, S3, SQS, Aurora PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, CloudFront, VPC, IAM, Security Groups

On-Call

We have a 24/7 customer support team who handle day-to-day issues. We don't have a formal on-call engineering rota, but our platform supports care homes around the clock – so we're looking for someone who is happy to occasionally jump on a call with the team if critical platform issues arise out of hours (and part of your job will be making sure this isn't necessary!).

• Make a meaningful impact in healthcare technology
• Work with modern cloud-native infrastructure
