  • Support API integration, authentication workflows, and secure data movement between customer systems and Mithrl
  • Troubleshoot deployment issues and serve as the technical point of contact for complex customer setups
  • Work with engineering teams to ensure that platform features align with customer infrastructure needs
  • Contribute to documentation, architectural guidelines, and internal playbooks for deployment and integration, * High ownership & impact: You will combine solution architecture, DevOps, and customer partnership in one high impact role. You will work on complex deployment challenges across leading biotechs and pharma companies
  • Team: Join a tight-knit, talent-dense team of engineers, scientists, and builders
  • Culture: We value consistency, clarity, and hard work. We solve hard problems through focused daily execution
