  • Design and support customer facing data products both with API and interactive components.
  • Provide service levels to our data scientists who are clients of your data pipelines and architecture

About you:

  • 5+ years in a Data Engineering role
  • Expertise in data orchestration and workflow management tools such as Apache Airflow, Apache NiFi, and Spark, AWS Glue for ETL/ELT/Zero-ETL pipelines
  • Competency in SQL, ETL processes, denormalization concepts and programming (dbt, Python)
  • Ability to communicate clearly with all audiences about data architecture and implementations, from engineering to product, sales to customer. Strong written and analytical skills.
  • Experience with Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) – CloudFormation or Terraform – to build and maintain data engineering pipelines
  • Familiarity with observability tools like DataDog to monitor data pipelines, set up alerts, triage incidents, resolve customer issues, and continuous product improvement
  • Experience with data warehousing platforms and tools such as Amazon Redshift, Snowflake
  • Strong bias for action, documentation and education
  • Ability to work through ambiguity with open communication and autonomy

Nice to have:

  • Any code, writing or projects that are public or shareable demonstrating experience or understanding of how data architecture excellence is key to delivering great products.
  • Experience working with data in a regulated industry and working around systemic data quality issues.

What you'll get from us:

  • Opportunities to solve problems of scale, debt and security to redefine what’s possible in medication intelligence
  • Strong voice in what we work on, how it works, and how it is built
  • Room to be creative and choose your own path
  • Trust in your sense of ownership
