Position Summary:

Join athenahealth as a Member of Technical Staff focused on building infrastructure automation and platform tooling that enable reliable, repeatable cloud operations. This position is based in Bangalore — Whitefield, India and is offered as a hybrid role. This role reports to the Senior Manager, Engineering.

About the Team:

We partner with Cloud Engineering teams across athenahealth to remove manual work, standardize provisioning and lifecycle processes, and improve operational visibility. Our charter is to enable scalable, reliable infrastructure operations by delivering internal platforms, automation, and integration solutions that close tooling gaps. We design and build cross-platform capabilities for Linux and Windows environments—covering provisioning, configuration management, workflow automation, and data integration—so that teams can operate consistently and at scale.

Expanded description: As part of this team you will help create reusable infrastructure modules, automation pipelines, and tooling libraries that reduce operational toil and improve developer velocity. You will contribute to infrastructure-as-code (IaC) implementations, maintain Linux system configurations, author Python scripts for automation and integrations, and help build CI/CD processes for infrastructure delivery. The team emphasizes maintainable code, testable automation, clear documentation, and collaborative handoffs. Your work will improve reliability and consistency across multiple cloud environments and directly support faster, safer deployments for internal engineering teams.

Essential Job Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain infrastructure-as-code modules and templates to provision cloud resources and standardize environments.
• Implement automation pipelines and CI/CD workflows for infrastructure provisioning, configuration, and deployment.
• Manage Linux systems administration tasks, including configuration, patching, service management, and troubleshooting for platform components.
• Author Python scripts and small utilities for orchestration, data transformation, and integration with platform APIs.
• Create and maintain configuration management artifacts and ensure consistent system state across environments.
• Collaborate with Cloud Engineering teams to capture requirements, design automation solutions, and validate deployments in staging and production-like environments.
• Build automated tests and validation checks for IaC and platform automation to reduce regressions and increase confidence in changes.
• Document runbooks, automation patterns, and onboarding guides to support internal users and future team members.
• Use AI-assisted tools where appropriate to speed routine tasks (for example, generating initial IaC templates, summarizing logs, or producing draft documentation); validate outputs and apply judgement before production use.
• Participate in post-deployment verification and continuously improve observability and alerting for automated systems.

Additional Job Responsibilities:

• Support environment provisioning for feature teams and help troubleshoot environment-specific issues.
• Contribute to platform hardening and security configuration efforts in collaboration with security teams.
• Assist in sandbox and test data management to enable realistic testing of automation flows.
• Help evaluate open-source tools or vendor solutions for automation and orchestration needs.
• Participate in knowledge-sharing sessions and provide informal mentoring to less experienced colleagues.
• Provide occasional after-hours support for critical automation incidents as part of an escalation rota.

Expected Education & Experience:

• 2–5 years of professional experience in infrastructure automation, site reliability, systems engineering, or related roles.
• Practical experience with Infrastructure as Code (for example: Terraform, CloudFormation, Pulumi, or similar).
• Strong Linux administration skills, including shell scripting, system services, networking basics, and package management.
• Proficiency in Python for automation, tooling, and small integrations.
• Experience building CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure changes (for example: Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI).
• Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and common managed services used in automation workflows.
• Knowledge of configuration management or orchestration tools (for example: Ansible, Chef, or similar).
• Experience writing automated tests or validation checks for infrastructure code is a plus.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
