At August Health, our mission is to empower the essential work of caring for our elders.
We achieve this by providing a modern operating platform and electronic health record (EHR) that enables senior living operators to deliver high-quality care with confidence.
Caregivers are the heart of senior living communities, embodying care, compassion, and well-being. Yet, they face increasing challenges—higher resident acuity, complex workflows, and staffing shortages. At August Health, we build tools that simplify their tasks, eliminate inefficiencies, and provide the insights they need to focus on what truly matters—caring for residents.
At August, we strive to live our values each day, in every interaction with our customers and with each other.
Be responsible – leave things better than you found them
Take ownership – be decisive and take action
Be ambitious – build something great

Be humble – celebrate each others’ successes and learn from our mistakes
Stay positive – assume best intent
ABOUT THE JOB
We're looking for a Site Reliability Engineer who can help scale and strengthen the foundation of our infrastructure while supporting a product that genuinely impacts people's lives. You'll join a small team of thoughtful, mission-driven engineers, working to bring stability, observability, and performance to our systems as we grow.
In this role, you’ll help improve our operational capabilities, optimize performance bottlenecks, and work closely with support and engineering teams to address issues from all sides.

You attempt to unblock yourself but know when to bring in help. You communicate well and share what you’ve learned with others.
You're comfortable participating in team-level discussions, contributing helpful and relevant insights.
