• Mentoring engineers and contribute to a culture of knowledge sharing, technical excellence, and continuous improvement

What We’re Looking For

• 8+ years of experience in data engineering or similar roles
• Strong experience with modern data pipeline tools (e.g., Airflow, dbt, dlt, Dagster)
• Proficiency in SQL and Python (or equivalent data engineering languages)
• Experience integrating with EHRs or healthcare APIs (e.g., FHIR, HL7, SMART on FHIR).
• Experience working with HIPAA-compliant data practices, security models, and systems (e.g. encryption, access controls, audit logging, data segregation, data retention, breach detection)
• Experience with data modeling and designing data warehouses (e.g., Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, or Postgres-based solutions)
• Strong communication skills with the ability to work with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Prior experience in client-facing or consultative roles is a plus

Nice to Have

• Experience with healthcare data standards (LOINC, SNOMED, ICD-10, etc.)
• Exposure to workflow engines, rule engines, or care coordination platforms
• Experience structuring data architecture for MLOps use-cases
• Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code and cloud-native tools (e.g., Terraform, AWS/GCP/Azure)
• Familiarity with container orchestration tools (e.g. Kubernetes, OpenShift)
• Background in building data platforms in high-compliance environments

Why You’ll Love Working with Us:

• Engage with an exciting, fast-growing, and diverse group of coworkers dedicated to improving lives by breaking down technology barriers.
• Work in a culturally rich environment that values diversity and inclusivity, ensuring a welcoming and supportive atmosphere for all employees
