ABOUT US
We build insurance software for complex, highly regulated healthcare environments, where a defect doesn't just fail a test, it can mean a denied claim, a coverage gap, or a compliance failure for the organizations that rely on us.
We partner closely with clients to evolve these systems in their real operating environments, not in isolation.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Join a high-impact engineering team where you'll play a key role in designing, automating, and optimizing the cloud infrastructure and delivery platforms that power our products and services.

DevOps Engineer Jobs in New York: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a devops engineer in New York?
No state-issued license is required to work as a devops engineer in New York. The most common path is a bachelor's degree in computer science, information technology, or a related field combined with hands-on platform experience, though employers also hire candidates who demonstrate skills through relevant certifications such as AWS Certified DevOps Engineer or Certified Kubernetes Administrator. Building a portfolio of infrastructure and automation projects strengthens a candidacy significantly in this market.
Which companies hire devops engineers in New York?
Employers hiring devops engineers in New York right now include Citi, Lab49, and Octus, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Financial services firms, major media companies, and enterprise technology organizations in and around New York City consistently drive the largest share of openings in the state.
Which New York cities have the most devops engineer jobs?
The cities with the most devops engineer openings in New York are New York, Manhattan, and Rome. New York City dominates because of its concentration of global financial institutions, media conglomerates, and enterprise technology headquarters, while Buffalo and Albany see demand from healthcare systems and state government IT modernization projects that anchor hiring outside the main metro.
Are there remote devops engineer jobs in New York?
Yes, and more than most fields. About 66% of devops engineer openings tied to New York are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting how much of the work centers on cloud platforms, automation pipelines, and monitoring systems that engineers can operate from anywhere. Roles requiring hands-on datacenter access or on-site incident response are the exceptions most likely to demand in-person presence.
How can I get hired as a devops engineer in New York with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a junior site reliability or platform engineer role at a large financial services or media company, where teams are large enough to bring in and develop earlier-career talent. New York employers including JPMorgan Chase and Verizon run technology associate programs and rotational tracks that place candidates without deep production experience into DevOps-adjacent work. Coming in from a systems administration or QA automation background is another common lateral route, and earning a cloud provider certification before applying gives a candidate a measurable edge in screening.
Where can I find and apply to devops engineer jobs in New York?
You can find and apply to devops engineer jobs in New York on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings in the state. Find roles that fit your experience and apply directly to the ones that match.
