About the role

<div class="content-intro">Insurance touches people during some of the most challenging moments in their lives. Hi Marley is on a mission to transform how the P&C industry communicates, making those moments faster, easier, and more empathetic for carriers and the customers they serve. We build AI-powered software that keeps everyone in the claims conversation informed and connected. If you believe insurance can combine operational excellence and automation with a human touch, we’d love to meet you. </div>We are looking for a Sr. Software Engineer II (DevOps) to help us build and scale the infrastructure that powers both our core platform and our rapidly growing agentic AI services. You will be at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, AI operations, and platform engineering — building the foundation that enables Hi Marley to operate reliably at enterprise scale while deploying autonomous AI agents in regulated insurance workflows. You'll also be expected to raise the bar for the teams around you — setting infrastructure standards, driving technical decisions in ambiguous situations, and helping less experienced engineers grow their operational instincts.Teamwork and shared enthusiasm are a core part of our culture, which is why this role involves joining us in the Boston office for 2-3 days each week.  What You’ll Do:  <ul> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="29" data-list-defn-props="{" data-aria-posinset="0"
