Responsibilities
- Design and manage bronze and silver layer data pipelines to ensure accurate, timely ingestion with full traceability.
- Lead end-to-end data workflows from raw input to cleansed, standardized staging layers, including deduplication, normalization, code mapping, and entity resolution.
- Build automated data ingestion systems using Snowpipe, Matillion, or custom tools with an emphasis on reliability, monitoring, and minimal manual oversight.
- Develop and maintain dbt models using well-documented, tested SQL that follows medallion architecture and supports incremental processing at scale.
- Create reusable engineering assets such as templates, macros, and testing frameworks to streamline onboarding of new data sources while preserving quality.
- Implement data quality controls, freshness monitoring, and anomaly detection systems; own pipeline reliability and respond to data incidents.
- Partner with architects and stakeholders to convert business needs into technical designs, contribute to architecture decision records, and ensure alignment with enterprise standards.
Work Arrangement
Remote (Worldwide)
Team
Collaborative engineering team; close interaction within the team and cross-functionally. Reports to Engineering Director.
Who This Role Is For
- You want to build foundational data infrastructure in a growing healthcare and life sciences company, not maintain legacy systems.
- You’re energized by healthcare data complexity, claims data is messy, and you find that interesting rather than frustrating.
- You thrive with autonomy and accountability. You want ownership of outcomes, not just tasks.
- You care about craft. Clean code, clear documentation, and maintainable systems matter to you.
- You want to see the impact of your work. The pipelines you build will power teams across the organization.
This role is not for you if
- you’re looking for a pure greenfield, no constraints environment. We have an architecture, standards, and patterns. You will contribute to them, but you won’t ignore them.
- You prefer highly specialized, narrow scope. This role spans ingestion, transformation, quality, and collaboration. You’ll wear multiple hats.
- You want to work in isolation. This is a collaborative team, and you’ll interact regularly within the engineering team and cross-functionally.
- You seek a management track. This is a hands-on IC role. Technical leadership is absolutely a yes, but this is not a people management role.
