About the role

Staff Engineer joining platform team at Grow Therapy to build a next-gen mental healthcare ecosystem. Tackle AWS infrastructure, Kubernetes operations, and lead cross-organizational initiatives.

Responsibilities

Join a mission-driven team to help build the internal developer ecosystem powering Grow’s next-generation mental healthcare platform.
Tackle complex challenges spanning AWS cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes (EKS) operations, CI/CD pipelines, and the tooling, automations, and workflows.
Lead large-scale initiatives that cross organizational boundaries, balancing autonomy with accountability for outcomes.
Own key areas of our platform roadmap and partner closely with product engineering to deliver capabilities that improve development speed, reliability, and scalability.

10+ years of professional experience: You have a track record of leading large-scale technical initiatives and delivering on outcomes.
Kubernetes operations: You have deep experience operating clusters (e.g., EKS), automating their lifecycles, and maintaining production SLOs for cluster services.
Self-service platforms: You have designed Kubernetes-based abstractions that have empowered development teams to manage their own services and infrastructure.
Cloud infrastructure: You have experience automating cloud infrastructure on providers such as AWS using tools such as Terraform or Crossplane.
Technical Breadth: You have experience with multiple backend languages (preferably Python, Go, and/or Typescript), solid foundations in networking concepts, and feel at home in a Linux terminal environment.
Impact-oriented: You prioritize outcomes over output and think deeply about the business and user value behind your work.
Self-starting: While you’re happy to take direction, you are intrinsically motivated and thrive when given the opportunity to lead initiatives.
Adaptable: Your strong opinions are loosely held; you’re open to new ideas and avenues of exploration; you are able to roll with the flow when business opportunities arise and priorities shift.
Team player: You collaborate well, communicate with empathy, and enjoy mentoring and learning from others.
