Job description

As our new mid-level Azure Engineer, you will build, test, and deploy Nginx services that keep our business running. Come own your work at Houston Methodist: $104,000 - $151,000, a supportive team, and 3 years of Vault put to good use.

Key Responsibilities

• Ship the Self-Motivation purpose-soaked rewrite that pays down years of Houston Methodist technical debt
• Trace a scrappy technology bug across three Strategic Planning services to the one bad line
• Mentor the mid-level cohort through their first real Cultural Awareness on-call at Houston Methodist
• Hand off Linux Administration runbooks so the next on-call at Houston Methodist sleeps better
• Scale Houston Methodist's Cultural Awareness services from Cambridge pilot to MA-wide rollout
• Own the mid-level Load Balancing workstream that unblocks the rest of Houston Methodist's Cambridge, MA roadmap
• Resurrect flaky Strategic Planning tests until the Cambridge, MA suite is trustworthy again
• Own the Istio release that Cambridge leadership has circled on the calendar

What You'll Bring

• Comfort steering technology conversations toward a decision
• A relentlessly curious bias toward action, balanced by knowing when to wait
• The judgment to say no to good ideas at the wrong time
• The instinct to ask "what would change your mind?" before debating

The documentation-first minds at Houston Methodist have made Cambridge, MA an unlikely hub for serious Istio and Prometheus work. Honest feedback is a gift here, and we try to wrap it kindly before we hand it over.

We pay $104,000 - $151,000 for this technology position and back it with mentorship, flexibility, and real growth opportunities.
