The role

The Mechanical Engineer we hire will help scale our infrastructure from thousands to millions of concurrent users. Think of it less as a job and more as a $77,000 - $109,000 bet Mount Sinai is placing on your 5 years and your judgment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Drive adoption of best practices in testing, security, and observability
  • Reproduce the hands-dirty bug from the Metairie field report, then make it impossible again
  • Refactor the technology module Mount Sinai has been afraid to touch
  • Coordinate releases with stakeholders across Metairie, LA and remote teams
  • Keep the technology CI/CD service humming through Metairie's holiday traffic surge

What You'll Bring

  • Demonstrated capacity to mentor or support mid-level teammates
  • Demonstrated comfort presenting to mid-level leadership
  • Real curiosity about why Mount Sinai customers do what they do
  • An instinct for prioritization when everything is labeled urgent
  • Working familiarity with internship schedules and team norms at Mount Sinai
  • Pattern recognition earned across many technology engagements

Mount Sinai is an employee-centric Metairie, LA company born from the belief that technology tools should respect the people using them. Learning out loud is encouraged here, so share the Express.js rabbit hole you fell down yesterday.

Our $77,000 - $109,000 package travels with real mentorship, a growth ladder you can see, and the flexibility to clock in from Metairie or home.

Right now is a strong time to apply, as our review queue is moving quickly.
