Senior / Staff Site Reliability Engineer

About Us

The American pharmacy system currently struggles to meet patient needs. Long wait times, overworked staff, and outdated infrastructure have compromised reliable access to essential medications. We are addressing these challenges today. We are a stealth-mode physical AI company working on a robotic pharmacy product. We are not just conceptualizing the pharmacy of the future; we are building it now.

About the Role

This is a foundational hire. You own the infrastructure that a pharmacy robot fleet runs on — and you set the standard for how infrastructure is built. Engineers write application code; you make sure it deploys reliably, scales correctly, stays secure, and is observable in production. You don't write dispense logic. You own the platform it runs on: Terraform, CI/CD, deployment automation, security scanning, observability, certificate management, and the production environment that must pass a mandated penetration test. You write code to solve infrastructure problems, not just configure tools.

What You'll Own

• Infrastructure as code — Terraform modules, multi-environment strategy (dev, staging, production), production hardening

• CI/CD — Build, test, scan, and deploy pipelines for Rust and TypeScript services

• Deployment automation — Reliable deploys in minutes. Docker builds. Blue/green or rolling deployments

• Observability — Dashboards, alerting, structured logging, health endpoints, SLO monitoring

• Security — Dependency auditing, vulnerability scanning, secret detection, image scanning, certificate management (X.509, mTLS)

• Device updates — OTA software update pipeline with staged rollout across pharmacy locations

• Cost management — Right-sizing, budget alerts, utilization targets

First 90 Days

• Day 30: Understand the existing infrastructure. Deploys are reliable. Security scanning enabled in CI. First monitoring dashboard operational.

• Day 60: Security hardening complete. CI/CD extended with full scanning. Alerting configured with escalation paths. Cost assessment delivered.

• Day 90: Production environment ready for pilot. Pen test prep done. OTA pipeline prototyped. Every service has a health dashboard, alerts, and a runbook.

Required Qualifications and Experiences

• 3+ years Terraform / IaC - Production modules, state management, multi-environment promotion

• AWS deep — VPC, ECS, RDS, IAM, KMS, SQS, CloudWatch. You understand the security model

• CI/CD — GitHub Actions or equivalent. Pipeline-as-code, caching, deployment gates

• Docker — Multi-stage builds, image optimization, production deployment

• Linux — System administration, troubleshooting, performance analysis

Nice-to-Have

• Rust toolchain (cargo, clippy, cross-compilation)

• IoT fleet management or device provisioning at scale

• AWS cost optimization

• Healthcare or regulated industry experience
