Platform Engineer

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Platform Engineer based in the United States.

This role offers the opportunity to shape and scale a modern cloud-based technology platform that powers critical healthcare applications used daily by care providers and operational teams. As a Platform Engineer, you will sit at the core of a cross-functional engineering ecosystem, building the infrastructure and tooling that enable product and data teams to deliver safely, quickly, and reliably. You will design systems that improve developer experience, strengthen security, and ensure high availability across user-facing and data-driven services. Working in a collaborative, mission-driven environment, you will partner closely with engineers, data teams, and product stakeholders to solve complex infrastructure challenges. The role blends hands-on engineering with strategic platform design, requiring a strong focus on automation, scalability, and operational excellence. This is a high-impact position where your work directly enhances system reliability, developer productivity, and ultimately care delivery outcomes.
