Devops Engineer Remote Jobs in California (NOW HIRING)

At IT Labs, we are looking for a hands-on Senior Azure Cloud DevOps Engineer to support one of the most innovative companies in the digital health space.

Our client is transforming the way healthcare is delivered, paid for, and experienced. They operate a technology-driven platform that connects employers and patients with top-tier medical providers through a Centers of Excellence model — helping eliminate surprise bills, reduce costs, and improve patient outcomes at scale. Their platform is backed by significant venture funding, has been validated by independent research institutions, and is recognized as a case study in top-tier business education. They serve a large portion of the US population and continue to grow their reach across the country.

In this role, you will be the bridge between development and operations — leading infrastructure projects end-to-end, from problem definition and technical design through implementation, rollout, documentation, and operational ownership. You will play a key role in modernizing cloud architecture and building a scalable, compliant Azure foundation to support future enterprise growth.

This role is best suited for someone who takes ownership, writes great documentation, thrives in collaborative cross-functional environments, and is as motivated by identifying problems as by solving them.

• Integrate security best practices into the infrastructure lifecycle to ensure compliance with data protection regulations

• Collaborate with stakeholders across engineering and product teams to understand needs and communicate progress

• Write comprehensive documentation of technical procedures, configurations, and deployed solution architectures

• Work cross-functionally to identify where infrastructure automation and cloud solutions can solve real problems

• At times, create and own your own tickets and backlog items

• 7+ years of experience with cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and/or site reliability engineering

• 5+ years of experience with container orchestration tools (e.g. AKS, EKS) including deployment models and monitoring/observability

• Proven experience scaling platforms on Azure with a strong understanding of reference architectures

• Expertise in implementing DevOps culture and fostering collaboration between development and operations teams

• Experience designing monitoring solutions for cloud infrastructure management

• Experience optimizing system reliability, scalability, and performance through DevOps methodologies

• Strong communication and interpersonal skills — able to work with stakeholders and convey technical progress clearly

• Comfortable sharing recommendations with team members and leadership

• Experience in the healthcare or health-tech space

• Preferred certifications (valid and verifiable):

  • AZ-400: Microsoft Certified – DevOps Engineer Expert

  • Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA)

  • Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD)

  • Docker Certified Associate

  • HashiCorp Terraform Associate

  • Security certifications related to Kubernetes, Terraform, or cloud technologies
