Senior Product Engineer, Deployment Platform

About the role

Vitalize's ability to grow is directly correlated to how fast we can deploy. Every new customer requires configuration work that is today largely manual, bespoke, and engineering-dependent. That's the bottleneck — and this role exists to eliminate it.

As a Senior Product Engineer, you'll own the internal platform to deploy new health systems to Vitalize. That means building configuration infrastructure that can handle the full complexity and variance of enterprise health systems at scale — and the tooling that lets deployment and customer success operate without engineering in the loop at every step.

Time-to-Go-Live and headcount per deployment are direct inputs to revenue capacity — and to how far the product can reach. The goal is to make deployments as close to self-serve SaaS as possible: fast, repeatable, and scalable without linearly growing the team behind them.

Problems you'll work on

• Building out the platform that handles the full complexity and variability of the workforce across enterprise health systems — sophisticated enough that deployment teams can configure, validate, and launch a new health system end-to-end without engineering involvement at any step.
• Turning health system context into structured configuration.
• Making integrations click-to-configure such that adding a new integration requires no engineer in the loop, just a deployment team working through a well-designed interface.
• Self-service configuration portal that lets hospital IT teams build and validate digital twins of their workforce data — mapping org structures, job codes, cost centers, and scheduling rules — without Vitalize in the loop.
• Reducing time-to-go-live by systematically replacing manual steps, tribal knowledge, and engineering dependencies with tooling that makes the deployment process fast, repeatable, and self-serve.

What you bring

• You've shipped internal platforms that operators actually depend on — not just tools that work, but systems that replaced the way a team operates.
• You know what it takes to go from manual and bespoke to scalable and self-serve.
• You scope and deliver complex features end-to-end — from technical design through to production — without a lot of hand-holding.
• You raise the floor around you. You write code others can read, leave systems better than you found them, and give feedback that actually helps.
• You have product instinct for internal users. You've sat with deployment teams or operators, watched how they actually work, and built tooling that replaced their manual processes rather than layered on top of them. You iterate on real workflows, not assumed ones.
• You are customer oriented. Our engineers meet with customers directly. You're comfortable in those conversations and you let what you hear shape what you build.
