**About Us**
At Turquoise Health, we're making healthcare pricing simpler, more
transparent, and lower cost for everyone. Have you or a family member ever
gotten an MRI, a lab, or even a straightforward surgery without knowing the
cost in advance? That's bonkers, right? We're working to fix that.
As a Platform Infrastructure Engineer, you will be responsible for managing
our web platform, including deployment, operations and performance. You will
lead efforts in monitoring and usage optimization to improve site performance
and reliability. You will build operational support tools for standing up new
web applications and managing existing ones to enable our Platform Engineering
teams to build and deploy new features quickly.
As you would be working for a start-up, your role would be wide-ranging. You
would get to work with a wide range of exciting tools to find pragmatic
solutions to challenging real-world problems. You would be able to leverage
what you already know while having the opportunity to learn new things
constantly.
_Below is a list of ideal qualifications for this position. Don't meet every
single one of them? That's okay! Studies show that BIPOC, people with
disabilities, and LGBTQIA+ folks hesitate to apply for a position unless they
meet 100% of the qualifications listed. We encourage anyone to apply for all
open roles. Building a truly diverse team is a challenge that we do not shy
away from. Healthcare affects all people differently, but it significantly
affects those in underserved communities. With a robust, diverse team, we are
stronger and better equipped to change the future of healthcare for all._
