Position Overview
The Pharmacy Benefit Services+ Technology organization is seeking a Infrastructure Associate Advisor to join our team. This Band 3 Contributor role is a key part of the group, driving innovation and operational excellence across the enterprise.
In this role, you will lead the development of intelligent, automated systems that streamline the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) by enabling scalable, low-maintenance solutions and accelerating solution adoption. A primary deliverable includes a self-service onboarding kit that empowers users—regardless of technical expertise—to begin using the solution within minutes, with zero coding and no ongoing maintenance required.
You will operate within a high-performance, high-frequency enterprise technology environment, collaborating closely with IT leadership and cross-functional teams to design reusable, adaptable solutions. Your focus will be on reducing redundancy, promoting reusability, and upholding high standards of engineering excellence.
Your solutions will be designed for broad adoption across multiple stakeholder groups, including developers, end-to-end testers, business analysts, and operations teams. By enabling shared tooling and consistent automation frameworks, you will foster greater collaboration, reduce the creation of duplicate or siloed products, and improve the overall quality and consistency of enterprise systems.
