  • Implement and manage data warehousing solutions using Redshift Serverless and other AWS data services.
  • Leverage dbt (Data Build Tool) for data modeling, transformation, and documentation.
  • Utilize workflow orchestration tools such as Temporal for pipeline automation.
Healthcare Data Expertise
  • Work with healthcare quality metrics such for value-based care and ensure data alignment with industry standards.
  • Collaborate with stakeholders to integrate population health tools and analytics into data workflows.
  • Develop and maintain familiarity with FHIR data models and healthcare interoperability standards for seamless integration of healthcare data sources.
  • Ensure compliance with HIPAA and other healthcare regulatory requirements in all data handling processes.
Optimization and Innovation
  • Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks in data pipelines, ensuring high availability and reliability.
  • Optimize data storage and querying performance within Redshift Serverless and AWS infrastructure.
  • Stay current with emerging trends in data engineering and healthcare technology, incorporating innovations into the data ecosystem.
Collaboration and Impact
  • Partner with data and engineering teams to ensure data is accessible and meets business requirements.
  • Develop scalable solutions for integrating complex healthcare datasets, ensuring data quality and accuracy.
  • Contribute to the design and implementation of secure, scalable, and efficient data architecture on AWS.

Required Qualifications
  • Must be US based. No foreign applicants will be considered.
  • Proven experience in data engineering roles with expertise in SQL, Python, and AWS cloud-based data infrastructure.
  • Experience with tools like dbt and Spark/PySpark for data transformation and modeling.
  • Familiarity with healthcare data systems, including HEDIS metrics, population health tools, and FHIR data models.
  • Knowledge of data warehousing and workflow orchestration tools.

Preferred Skills
  • Strong understanding of healthcare data standards, including FHIR, HL7 and CQL.
  • Hands-on experience with data modeling, normalization, and schema design for complex datasets.
  • Experience designing and building scalable, production-grade data pipelines using orchestration tools such as Airflow, Dagster, or Temporal.
  • Hands-on experience with AWS data and compute services, including Glue, EMR, Iceberg, Redshift Serverless, S3, Lambda, and related technologies.
  • Strong experience with data transformation and distributed processing, using tools such as dbt, Spark/PySpark, and Pandas.
  • Experience designing and operating HIPAA-compliant data architectures and handling sensitive healthcare data.
  • Demonstrated ability to optimize data pipelines for performance, scalability, and reliability in cloud environments.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail when working with large, complex, and heterogeneous datasets.
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform.

What We Offer
  • Competitive salary and benefits package.
  • Opportunity to work in a fast-paced, innovative environment.
  • Professional growth and development opportunities.
  • Collaborative and supportive team culture.
  • Chance to make a meaningful impact on the healthcare industry.

When applying
In addition to your resume, also include:
  • A highly personalized, bold, and hilarious "Keebler Health-style" introduction that grabs attention - outgoing, fun, and uniquely you (not uniquely ChatGPT). Think: confident, high-energy, slightly irreverent (but still professional), with a smart nod to healthcare, value-based care, and the fact that we're building something real.
