About wawa fertility

17% of adults worldwide need help to have a baby — and by 2050, that number will reach nearly 50%. Yet only 2% can access fertility treatment today. That’s not a gap; it’s a canyon. And we’re building the bridge.

At wawa fertility, we’re on a mission to make fertility care accessible to 100% of those who need it — transforming success rates and accessibility worldwide. Our end-to-end platform digitises the entire fertility journey, enabling clinics to swap spreadsheets for seamless workflows and spend less time on admin, more time on life-changing care.

We’re not tiptoeing around an industry plagued by stale incumbents and outdated tech. We’re sprinting through it. With proven product-market fit, our platform is live in 14+ countries and scaling fast. Clinics trust us. Patients rely on us. And the impact we’re making is real.

We’re building the operating system for the future of fertility care. And we’d love you to help us deliver it. 💜

The Mission

“To make fertility care accessible to everyone who needs it — because the right to start a family shouldn’t depend on where you live or what you earn.”

Who You Are

You are the kind of engineer who deeply cares about their craft and learning. You thrive when you are not only able to solve a problem, but also ensure it can never happen again. You are tenacious in troubleshooting, and confident in your execution. Automation and advanced infrastructure truly excites you.

You seek holistic understanding of the system, while maintaining a high personal bar for quality and attention to detail. You also deeply care about the user on the other end — the nurse checking scan results at 7am, the patient anxiously refreshing their app. Uptime and reliability are non-negotiables, while engineering velocity and enablement are your tenements. You strive to leverage AI to boost your performance far beyond what was possible before.

Autonomy energises you. You set your own timelines, own your deliverables, and keep the team in the loop without being asked. You fail fast, learn faster, and never make the same mistake twice (well… almost never 😉).

What You’ll Do

This is a role for builders who want to make a direct impact. We’re creating a complete operating system for fertility clinics — from managing follicle scans to processing payments. It’s a rare chance to reinvent healthcare workflows for an entire sector.

Together with our current Senior Platform Engineer you will form a Platform Team, and execute on the following duties:

  • Maintain and grow a multi-account, multi-region AWS infrastructure, orchestrated almost entirely with OpenTofu and GitHub Actions. This includes Governance, IAM, Data (RDS/S3/Valkey), Compute (EKS/EC2), Security - all of it.

  • Re-imagine our GitOps deployment model based on ArgoCD and AWS EKS. You will own Kubernetes cluster tooling and CI/CD pipelines to make our developers proud.

  • Perform regular maintenance of our Kubernetes clusters (upgrades), as well as open-source Terraform modules (to which we frequently contribute to).

  • Re-design our holistic observability strategy, including future efficient on-call rotations, actionable alerting and continuous performance monitoring, for both the applications and the infrastructure.

  • Deliver infrastructure to unblock mission-critical projects, striving for self-service “platform” solutions whenever possible.

  • Own Security and Compliance, assuring highest levels of security, meeting ISO27001/SOC2/HIPAA standards.

  • Shape the architecture and engineering culture of a product used by clinics across 14+ countries.

What You Bring

  • Deep expertise in cloud infrastructure, ideally on AWS, and container orchestration with Kubernetes (bonus points for GCP and CloudFlare).

  • Experience shipping production grade infrastructure with Terraform/OpenTofu (bonus points for CloudPosse Atmos/Spacelift).

  • Ability to write production-grade code in at least one programming language (i.e. Ruby-on-Rails/Golang), or one scripting language (i.e. Python/Bash).

  • Transparent and intellectually honest communication — you say what you mean and mean what you say.

  • A hunger for high-tempo environments where speed and quality are balanced through individual responsibility.

  • Deep sense of responsibility, and ability to deliver solutions that stand the test of time.

  • A willingness to fail fast and learn faster — two-way doors are your favourite kind of doors.
