My client is a publicly traded precision medicine and AI TechBio company focused on cancer diagnostics. They use whole exome and whole transcriptome sequencing combined with machine learning to help oncologists make better, faster treatment decisions - and have helped over half a million cancer patients to date. The work is meaningful and the company is growing.
They just wrapped a major cloud migration - nearly all of their infrastructure now lives in AWS - and they're hiring a Staff DevOps Engineer to own and evolve the platform going forward. This sits within the infrastructure engineering org and reports directly to the team manager.
This is a real DevOps role, not platform engineering. You'll lead EKS cluster design and management, drive PoC initiatives, build and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitLab, and mentor junior engineers. The heavy lifting of migration is done - this is about taking a modern AWS environment and making it exceptional.
What they need:
- 7+ years in DevOps or SRE
- 5+ years of hands-on AWS experience
- Deep Kubernetes/EKS expertise - cluster management, troubleshooting, optimization
- Strong Terraform background
- GitLab CI experience
- Bachelor's degree in CS, IT, or a related field
The role is fully remote with a base of $140K-$179K. Strong benefits - medical, dental, vision, 401K match, HSA, tuition assistance. The final interview round is held in person at their Atlanta or Dallas office.
