Your missions

Join us as we work to create a thriving ecosystem that delivers accessible, high-quality, and sustainable healthcare for all.

We are looking for a Senior Database Engineer to join our Cloud Infrastructure Engineering division.  Cloud Infrastructure Engineering ensures the continuous availability of the technologies and systems that are the foundation of athenahealth’s services.   We are directly responsible for thousands of servers, petabytes of storage, and handling thousands of web requests per second, all while sustaining growth at a meteoric rate. We enable an operating system for the medical office that abstracts away administrative complexity, leaving doctors free to practice medicine.

But enough about us; let’s talk about you!

You’re a Database Engineer with a passion for identifying and resolving performance and scalability challenges in Postgres and Oracle.  You are a curious team player, someone who loves to explore, learn, and make things better.  You are excited to uncover inefficiencies in business processes, creative in finding ways to automate solutions, and relentless in your pursuit of greatness. You’re a nimble learner capable of quickly absorbing complex solutions and an excellent communicator who can help evangelize Postgres engineering excellence.

The Team: We are a bunch of Site Reliability Engineers who are passionate about reliability, automation, and scalability. We use an agile based framework to execute our work, ensuring we are always focused on the most important and impactful needs of the business. We support databases in both private and public cloud and make data-driven decisions for which one best suits the needs of the business. We are relentless in automating away manual, repetitive work so we can focus on projects that help move the business forward.

Job Responsibilities

  • Leverage the principles of resilience engineering to ensure the stability, security, and scalability of Postgres and Oracle databases and services.
  • Ensure product success through the strategic use of technologies such as Postgres and Oracle
  • Develop software-based, automated solutions to core business problems
  • Design and implement database services that support Infrastructure-as-Code principles
  • Database administration of Postgres in AWS and Oracle on-prem.

Typical Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience building, scaling, and supporting highly available Postgres and Oracle databases and services.
  • Expertise in the delivery, maintenance, and support of Postgres in AWS and Oracle on-prem
  • Expertise in configuration management, Infrastructure-as-Code
  • Expertise in promoting and driving visibility to aid in the rapid detection and resolution of issues
  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience required
  • Kubernetes, EKS, and Terraform experience preferred

About athenahealth

Here’s our vision: To create a thriving ecosystem that delivers accessible, high-quality, and sustainable healthcare for all. 

What’s unique about our locations? 
From an historic, 19th century arsenal to a converted, landmark power plant, all of athenahealth’s offices were carefully chosen to represent our innovative spirit and promote the most positive and productive work environment for our teams. Our 10 offices across the United States and India — plus numerous remote employees — all work to modernize the healthcare experience, together. 
 
Our company culture might be our best feature. 
We don't take ourselves too seriously. But our work? That’s another story. athenahealth develops and implements products and services that support US healthcare: It’s our chance to create healthier futures for ourselves, for our family and friends, for everyone.  

 

Our vibrant and talented employees — or athenistas, as we call ourselves — spark the innovation and passion needed to accomplish our goal. We continue to expand our workforce with amazing people who bring diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives at every level, and foster an environment where every athenista feels comfortable bringing their best selves to work. 

 

Our size makes a difference, too: We are small enough that your individual contributions will stand out — but large enough to grow your career with our resources and established business stability. 
 
Giving back is integral to our culture. Our athenaGives platform strives to support food security, expand access to high-quality healthcare for all, and support STEM education to develop providers and technologists who will provide access to high-quality healthcare for all in the future. As part of the evolution of athenahealth’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program, we’ve selected nonprofit partners that align with our purpose and let us foster long-term partnerships for charitable giving, employee volunteerism, insight sharing, collaboration, and cross-team engagement. 

 

What can we do for you? 
Along with health and financial benefits, athenistas enjoy perks specific to each location, including commuter support, employee assistance programs, tuition assistance, employee resource groups, and collaborative workspaces — some offices even welcome dogs.  

 

In addition to our traditional benefits and perks, we sponsor events throughout the year, including book clubs, external speakers, and hackathons. And we provide athenistas with a company culture based on learning, the support of an engaged team, and an inclusive environment where all employees are valued 

 

We also encourage a better work-life balance for athenistas with our flexibility. While we know in-office collaboration is critical to our vision, we recognize that not all work needs to be done within an office environment, full-time. With consistent communication and digital collaboration tools, athenahealth enables employees to find a balance that feels fulfilling and productive for each individual situation. 

athenahealth is committed to a policy of equal employment opportunity—that’s why we recruit and hire applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy), national origin, disability, age, sexual orientation, veteran status, genetic information, gender identity, gender expression, or any other factor prohibited by law. We’re happy to provide a reasonable accommodation, for those with a disability, to complete any part of the application process. If you are unable to access or use this online application process and need an alternative method for applying, please contact us at taoperations@athenahealth.com for assistance.
