Senior Azure Cloud DevOps Engineer

At Carrum, we are transforming how we pay for, deliver and experience healthcare. If you are passionate about changing healthcare and want to finally get rid of surprise bills, poor quality, and high prices, while thriving in an entrepreneurial, cutting‑edge environment, we would love to connect with you.

In 2014 Carrum reinvented the Centers of Excellence (COE) category in digital health. Today, 95% of the US population lives within 50 miles of a Carrum COE and our providers rank in the top 10% nationally.

As a Senior Azure Cloud DevOps Engineer, you will be primarily responsible for bridging development and operations through collaboration, infrastructure as code (IaC), automation, and systems maintenance. This role requires excellent communication skills to work with stakeholders, understand their needs, and convey progress. The ideal candidate will excel at designing and implementing best‑practice IaC solutions, automating the deployment, scaling, and management of application infrastructure, and maintaining systems to meet company needs. Additionally, you will lead incident response and root cause analysis efforts to ensure quick issue resolution and prevention. Carrum is at an inflection point where we are modernizing our cloud architecture and building a scalable, compliant Azure foundation for future enterprise growth. You will lead infrastructure projects end‑to‑end, from problem definition and technical design through ticket creation and implementation, rollout, documentation, and operational ownership.

Beyond these core responsibilities, you will be expected to integrate security best practices into our infrastructure lifecycle to ensure compliance with data protection regulations. You will also be responsible for comprehensive documentation of technical procedures, configurations, and deployed solution architectures. This role reports directly to the Senior DevOps Engineering Manager.

The salary range for this role is $160K-$200K, depending on geography and level of experience, plus possible equity and an annual bonus.
