Director of Engineering - Infrastructure and SRE
- San Francisco, CA
We all depend on healthcare throughout our lifetimes, for ourselves, and our families and friends, but it is notoriously difficult to navigate and understand. As an industry that comprises 20% of the US economy we think healthcare should work better for all of us. At Collective Health we believe it’s time for a new day in healthcare where as members we are informed and empowered to make the right care choices when the decisions are urgent and critical.
As director of infrastructure and SRE, you’ll be responsible for the day to day evolution and operation of the cloud based compute, storage, event streaming, observation, and data transformation infrastructure required to change the cost curve of healthcare. This includes cost optimization, capacity planning, and incident management. You’ll work with other stakeholders to ensure the platform delivers primitives needed to build applications our customers want. You will be responsible for the forms and methods by which data is exchanged between collective health and its partners. Reliability is important to Collective Health and its customers, so you’ll work with stakeholders to adopt meaningful SLIs, SLOs, and define meaningful and reasonable error budgets. You’ll be responsible for the observability of the platform and the applications that run on it. You and your teams are responsible for learning as much as you can from failures through postmortem processes and reviews, which ensure continuous improvement of the overall platform.
