The role
As a Site Reliability Engineer on our SaaS team, you will keep OnShift's healthcare workforce management products stable, secure, and recoverable across Azure and AWS. You will work with a small SRE team and the SaaS engineering team to make releases safer and environments more reliable, while we modernize our core scheduling product and consolidate onto AWS.
The work is a mix of running production (incidents, Kubernetes workloads, databases and queues) and engineering that removes manual work: automating releases, fixing
environment drift, and moving workloads between clouds.
Where you’ll work
This is a fully remote position based in the United States. You should be comfortable working asynchronously and partnering with teammates in different time zones.
What you’ll be doing
Split your time 50/50 between keeping the lights on (maintenance/support) and active development (improving automation and tooling).
Help move workloads from Azure to AWS and support the infrastructure side of our Schedule modernization.
Take part in the incident standby rotation and the follow-up work that keeps the same incident from happening twice.
Investigate logs, debug crashing pods, and troubleshoot complex distributed system issues using observability tools - going deeper than just deploying charts.
Use modern AI tools (ClaudeCode, Cursor) to automate toil and speed up workflows, maintaining a realistic balance between using new tech and relying on proven engineering principles.
Make lower environments stable and consistent with production so engineers can trust what they test.
Automate the parts of our release process that are still manual, using Azure DevOps Pipelines and ArgoCD.
What you’ll need
Hands-on production experience with Terraform (or Pulumi/CloudFormation), managing version-controlled, modular infrastructure through an infrastructure-as-code–first approach.
Ability to spin up pods, debug broken deployments, and manage resources via YAML. We don't need you to architect a cluster from scratch on Day 1, but you must be comfortable operating inside one.
Strong understanding of web application fundamentals (HTTP/S, SSL, GET/POST) to troubleshoot connectivity issues between services effectively.
A programmatic mindset. Whether it’s Python, Go, or Bash, you write code to fix problems rather than fixing them manually every time.
An open but skeptical attitude toward AI. You are willing to use LLMs to be more efficient, but you verify the output and don't use them as a crutch.
Perks of working for ShiftKey
Inclusive and collaborative work environment where all voices are valued.

Comprehensive health, vision, and dental coverage.
Benefits begin on your first day.
Generous PTO and company-paid holidays, including flexible floating holidays.
