Job Posting Details
Summary

We are looking for Senior Data Engineers to join our team. You'll be part of a team building data pipelines and tools to support our analytics and application development, with opportunities to touch and explore a wide range of technologies. You will work with data scientists, frontend engineers, and healthcare professionals in a unique environment — leveraging iterative, technical insights and building tools to improve medical outcomes. We value moving fast, but we do so with a pragmatic approach that will allow us to sustain velocity over time.

Healthcare experience is not required.

Responsibilities
  • Develop and maintain systems for capturing changes to data, ensuring correctness and consistency.
    • Develop batch ingestion (ETL) systems for 3rd party data and internal processes (data science).
    • Create real-time ingestion systems for applications.
    • Empower control over these operations.
  • Design and implement systems for providing data to stakeholders, ensuring correctness and consistency.
    • Guarantee data freshness and availability.
    • Enable visibility into history and provide the ability to identify the root causes of change.
  • Ensure compliance with the highest standards of quality - data is forever.
  • Advance the organizational understanding of available data, incorporating it into improving our view of the world.
  • Advocate innovative uses for data, including methodologies, techniques, and tools.
  • Define and maintain development practices that let us move fast with quality — including writing tests and documenting key implementations.
  • Assist with continually enhancing operational excellence - deployment, migrations, uptime, performance, etc.
  • Work with a wide range of tools and technologies (from Python to PostgreSQL) and be able to evaluate technologies for what we are building.
  • Promote the cause of Complex Data (in contrast to Big Data).
Ideal Candidate
  • A problem solver that gets excited by big, complicated problems
  • A pragmatic approach to software that prioritizes delivering value continuously
  • Comfortable with high collaboration; working with a team and domain experts to develop the right solutions
  • Enjoy working in a fluid environment, defining and owning priorities that adapt to our larger goals
  • A genuine interest in what good technology can do to help people
  • A positive attitude towards tackling hard problems in an important industry
