About Us

At Sully.ai, We’re Building the Most Impactful Healthcare Company on Earth

We believe that access to a great doctor is a basic human right. Today, that’s not a reality. Delays, misdiagnoses, administrative chaos, and burnout plague the system.

Our Mission: One Human, One Doctor. We build AI teammates that augment clinicians — scribes, nurses, receptionists, translators — all powered by our own world-class models and deployed in real-world care.

Our Traction

  • 450+ organizations signed 16 months

  • AI agents cut admin by ~2.8 hours daily and reduce onboarding 85%.

  • 5M+ Clinical Tasks completed to date, serving 36+ specialties.

  • Raised $25M from YC, Eric Yuan, Amity, Semper Virens

  • Patented AI architecture (MedCon-1) outperforms GPT-4.5, Gemini, Claude on clinical reasoning tasks

Sully requires A-players capable of 4 months = 1 year output.

This role is structured as a Contract-to-Hire position with a 60-day trial period. Sully.ai maintains an exceptionally high performance bar, and this structure ensures mutual alignment before transitioning to full-time

What You’ll Do

  • Own multi‑cloud provisioning, upgrading, and reliability of the core platform

  • Automate everything via infrastructure as code and GitOps

  • Ship fully automated deployments across regions

  • Standardize developer experience across areas such as tooling and CI/CD

  • Optimize our stack’s scalability and maintain cost‑awareness for AI workloads

What You Must Bring

  • Senior-level experience & ability in Platform, DevOps, or SRE roles with production Kubernetes across multiple clouds (AWS, GCP, Azure), not single‑cloud only.

  • Proficiency with GitOps and Infrastructure as Code, including ArgoCD and either Terraform or Pulumi.

  • Strong coding skills in Python or TypeScript for platform tooling and automation.

First-Month Focus

  • Take a loosely defined platform challenge, write the requirements, and deliver a working solution

  • Audit platform, CI/CD, and dev tooling with Eng/Product; remove top blockers

  • Baseline key metrics (lead time, deploy freq, MTTR, cost per token); draft a Platform Playbook

90 Day OKRs

  • 100% infrastructure changes via IaC + GitOps; no console edits

  • Automated multi‑region deployments across ≥2 clouds; SLOs enforced; MTTR ↓50%

  • Engineer efficiency up 80–90% on routine workflows; reduced LLM and infra cost

Who Thrives Here

  • Entrepreneurial to your core: You think in outcomes, thrive in chaos, and take ownership without limits

  • Mission-obsessed: You’re here to save lives, not just ship features — patients and doctors are your why.

  • Impact-driven & fast-moving: You sprint toward hard problems and ship with sharp judgment.

  • Elite teammate: You raise the bar through high standards, direct feedback, and craft excellence.
