Description:

• Lynx is transforming from a traditional production support model to an automation-first, AI-assisted reliability platform following its migration to Azure cloud.

• You will own and enhance observability using Dynatrace (dashboards, alerts, SLIs/SLOs), troubleshoot production issues across Java-based services, Kubernetes, and cloud infrastructure, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to reduce risk and operational toil.
• A key focus of this role is designing and building AI-driven automation for incident ingestion, triage, investigation, and remediation using multi-agent patterns, with appropriate guardrails and human-in-the-loop controls.
• You will also develop automation for incident communication, reporting, and continuous improvement, while remaining accountable for system reliability and AI-driven operations in production.
• The role combines software engineering and systems expertise to automate workflows, improve performance, and enhance system resilience using tools such as Azure, Kubernetes, Docker, GitHub Actions, Dynatrace, Python, Bash, and Ansible.
• Additional responsibilities include developing CI/CD pipelines, managing infrastructure, improving monitoring and observability, and supporting Java applications in production environments.
• As a senior leader, you will define reliability standards, influence system architecture, lead incident response efforts, and serve as an escalation point for critical issues.
• You will drive proactive reliability improvements through monitoring and reporting, communicate system health and risks to leadership, and mentor team members while supporting hiring and onboarding efforts.
• Ensure compliance with HIPAA and organizational security and regulatory requirements.

Qualifications:

• Participation in a scheduled on-call rotation is required.

• Strong experience with Azure cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, Docker, Java production systems, CI/CD (GitHub Actions), and observability platforms (Dynatrace preferred).

• Deep understanding of SRE principles (SLIs, SLOs, error budgets).
• Experience with Ansible.
• Solid understanding of Linux and Windows system administration.
• Experience working with onsite and offshore teams.
• Strong communication skills (written and verbal).
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
• Experience in healthcare software or compliance solutions is a plus.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

Preferred / Differentiating Qualifications:

• Experience designing automation that replaces or materially reduces on call toil.
• Experience building or orchestrating AI agents applied to operational workflows.
• Familiarity with multi agent architectures or distributed automation systems.
• Strong judgment around risk management, safety boundaries, and human in the loop design.
• Experience working in healthcare or regulated environments.
