The project:

We are looking for an experienced and passionate engineer who can methodically and creatively add value to the business and organization. You will come in ready to help define the data ingestion, ETL and vendoring process of the core data responsible for driving the client’s product. This will require a strong background of data architecture and data engineering best practices.

- Architect and develop scalable data pipelines and infrastructure to collect, process, and analyze large volumes of healthcare data.
- Collaborate with data scientists, product teams, and user experience experts to understand data requirements and translate them into technical solutions.
- Design and optimize data models and databases to ensure efficient data storage, retrieval and analysis.
- Implement best practices for data quality, data governance, and data security to ensure compliance and privacy.
- Collaborate with external partners and vendors to integrate data sources and systems effectively.
- Mentor and provide technical guidance to junior members of the data engineering team.
- Stay up to date with emerging technologies and industry trends in data engineering and contribute to the continuous improvement of the data infrastructure.

What you will bring:

- 5+ years of experience in performing results-driven development in a collaborative environment.
- Experience with Python, NoSQL databases and Data Lake.
- Experience in designing and implementing scalable data pipelines using modern data processing frameworks (e.g., Spark, Kafka).

- Knowledge of cloud platforms such as AWS.
- Deep understanding of data governance, data quality and data security principles.

Nice to have:

- Experience with relational databases, PostgreSQL in particular.
- Experience with Terraform.
- Prior exposure to the healthcare, insurance, or fintech industries is a bonus, along with a genuine passion for our mission.
- Experience with startups is not necessary, but you should be looking forward to bringing order, power, and role definition to an initial blank slate.
