Description:
What We Do
At Vitalize, we enable health systems to automate and optimize staffing operations, freeing up thousands of hours and reducing labor costs by millions. Currently, schedules still live on paper, spreadsheets, and whiteboards, and hospitals are building new departments of 20+ FTEs to manage this tangled mess.
In less than 6 months, Vitalize has reached 7-figures in ARR and is backed by top investors, including Y Combinator and top health systems.
We are a small team of published healthcare researchers, college and grad school dropouts, former McKinsey consultants, former US math champions, and previous VC-backed founders.
Our Vision
To become the unified clinical operating system for health systems. After rebuilding hospital staffing and scheduling automation-first (our wedge), we want to consolidate fragmented HR, timekeeping/attendance, and clinical operations processes that are trapped in Excel or Legacy HR systems. We see a massive opportunity to automate and consolidate the core processes that govern > 60% of every health system's P&L.
About the role
We're hiring for a Devops Engineer to build and maintain our infrastructure, deployment processes, and security systems. This role has a 70/30 split between devops responsibilities and backend development, working closely with our engineering team to ensure reliable, scalable, and secure operations.
In this role, you'll take ownership of our infrastructure and deployment pipeline, implementing best practices that will support hundreds of thousands of users across enterprise health systems.
