Job description

Job Title: Freelance Data Architect & Developer (SQL/Python)

Location: Hybrid (Tallahassee, FL) — Requires periodic in-person collaboration, so you must be located within commuting distance.

The Opportunity

WiredPeople is looking for a highly skilled, freelance Data Specialist who thrives on reverse-engineering and solving data puzzles. We are utilizing the WellSky platform (a healthcare case management system) and need a technical detective to map out its underlying schema.

This isn’t your standard, repetitive report-writing gig. We need someone who can dig deep into the architecture, build out comprehensive Entity Relationship Diagrams (ERDs), and use that foundational map to create automated, scalable reporting solutions—like seamlessly linking clients to their caregivers. If you love translating messy data into actionable insights and enjoy a highly collaborative, hybrid work environment, we want you on our team.

What You'll Be Doing
  • Data Sleuthing & Mapping: Dive into the underlying schema of the WellSky platform. You will identify primary/foreign keys and unravel the complex relationships between clients, caregivers, services, and demographic data.

  • Building the Blueprint: Create crystal-clear Entity Relationship Diagrams (ERDs) and a functional Data Dictionary that our internal teams will rely on for years to come.

  • Advanced Automation & Reporting: Turn everyday business requirements into elegant, complex SQL queries and Python scripts to extract, automate, and deliver highly accurate datasets.

  • Bridging the Tech Gap: Act as the technical translator. You'll develop clear Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and run virtual/in-person training sessions, breaking down complex database concepts for team members who don't speak in code.

What You Bring to the Table
  • Core Tech Stack: 5+ years of robust experience writing complex SQL queries (CTEs, window functions, complex joins) and building scalable data scripts in Python (Pandas, SQLAlchemy, etc.).

  • Healthcare Data Experience (Huge Plus!): Prior experience with EHR, EMR, or case management platforms. Bonus points if you have specific experience with WellSky.

  • Architectural Chops: Proven experience reverse-engineering relational databases, mapping schemas, and using tools like Lucidchart, Visio, or DbSchema.

  • Exceptional Communication: You have a knack for translating non-technical requests (e.g., "Who are the caregivers in this county?") into technical queries, and can explain technical roadblocks to business leaders without the jargon.

  • Security-Minded: A solid understanding of data compliance and best practices for handling sensitive PII and healthcare data.

Why Partner with WiredPeople?

You’ll get the flexibility of freelance work while making a tangible, high-level impact on how our organization leverages data to improve healthcare and case management outcomes.
WiredPeople provides equal employment opportunities (EEO) to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability or genetics.
