ABOUT VITALIZE

Our Vision: Unlock Healthcare's Full Capacity

Health systems still run critical operations like staffing, labor planning, and capacity on spreadsheets, phone calls, and guesswork.

Vitalize is building the AI operating system for how health systems manage labor and capacity. The impact is real: we save hospitals millions in unnecessary labor spend, give clinical leaders back 10–20 hours every week, and are often the reason staff and leaders stay.

We’re trusted by leading health systems across the country and have raised more than $31M from top healthcare and technology investors, including our own customers.

OUR VALUES

We hire and grow everyone against the same four values. Each one comes from a real Vitalize story—interview with us to hear them!

- 🚗 Push the Car. Step in regardless of role. We help wherever we're needed, own problems end to end, and don't stay in our lane. People can count on us.

- 🏥 Premier 1K. We show up for our customers, always. Nearly everyone visits a customer site in their first month, and customer feedback informs everything we do.

- 🗣️ Run Towards the Ugly. Name the ugliest truth first, then propose the fix. Candor over comfort—we call out what's broken, and never get complacent. This shapes our craft.

- 💡 Think Bigger Fridays. See the gap, fill it—no permission required. Every decision is an experiment: we run it, let the results decide, and drive real impact from day one.

ABOUT VITALIZE'S PLATFORM TEAM

Platform encompasses everything from infrastructure that takes the app from localhost http://localhost to production, to the developer tooling that allows our developers to focus on product, to the security that keeps our customers’ data safe, and much more. The Platform Team at Vitalize is unique in that we get to decide and own what it means to adopt AI in our workflows. Our job extends beyond traditional DevOps and into AI leadership. This means setting the AI roadmap for the Engineering and broader organization—deciding what workflows to bet on and what tools to incorporate.

THE ROLE

We are hiring our second Platform Team member. The role starts with the fundamentals of cloud infrastructure like AWS, Kubernetes, and Terraform. Building on that is a deep understanding of common infrastructure patterns like cybersecurity, observability, and CI/CD. Finally, the role expands to include developer tooling and building internal apps and features that extend beyond the engineering team (e.g. internal agent workflows, onboarding tools, etc.). This means: AWS/EKS -> Vanta/Grafana/Buildkite -> React/Effect/Bun.
