Description

Our engineering team has built the largest private Medicare marketplace in the country. We passionately focus on the continuous improvement of the systems we build and the culture we promote. We build a platform that provides the best possible support to our customers who are shopping for insurance, and where our insurance carriers can be confident that their products are accurately and impartially represented.

We are looking to grow and lead our teams to include the Site Reliability Engineering discipline. We have spent many years growing and fostering a DevOps culture by bridging the divide between our Software and Infrastructure Engineering departments. We want the cross-functional teams we are building to include Site Reliability Engineers, in order to do that we need someone to guide and curate our internal definition of success for this discipline. The ideal candidate can successfully coach managers on how to find, retain, and manage site reliability engineers; while remaining detached from a direct reporting relationship. Success would also entail coaching engineers looking to specialize in how to learn and master this discipline. We operate in a complex multi-tenant hybrid cloud and on-premises infrastructure that spans both Windows and Linux OS. We strive for security, reliability, and automation in line with DevOps and Site Reliability Engineering principles. If you are passionate about helping team members grow and promoting a culture of learning and improvement through metrics and automation while sharing those lessons learned, we want to hear from you.

The Role

You will be responsible for helping our Client Product Family build out a robust new architecture in a hybrid cloud environment. This includes typical data processes like ETL, but with an approach that follows traditional software engineering practices such as source control, unit testing, continuous integration, continuous deployment, etc. The product family is also be responsible for various REST / HTTP services primarily built with .NET. You will not be limited to the area of infrastructure and are invited to help the software development team in any of the tasks they are facing, but you will be the one responsible for the infrastructure and to ensure that everything is resilient, monitored, etc. In the same way that your responsibilities are not limited, our development teams are expected to help out with these kinds of activities as well but may require mentoring in areas they are unfamiliar or inexperienced with.
