SENIOR DATA ENGINEER, PLATFORM Salary range: $180,000 - $220,000 per year ABOUT THE ROLE Two kinds of data decide whether we can do our job. What a health plan tells us happened to a member, in eligibility files, claims, pharmacy and hospital event feeds. And what our own software records about what we did for them. When a file is late, malformed, or quietly incomplete, care teams work from a stale list. When the two do not line up, nobody can say whether the work is helping. You will own the infrastructure our data runs on: where and how our jobs run and whether they run efficiently, including compute choices, serverless versus clusters, cost and performance; how work is orchestrated and deployed; how we connect to partners and systems, over SFTP, S3, private networking and partner feeds; and whether all of it is reliable and observable. You will set the technical direction for that platform, make the architecture calls, and build it as software, with tests, version control and infrastructure as code. This is a senior individual contributor role, with a clear path to leading data engineering as the team grows. This role is complementary to analytics engineering. Analytics owns the questions and the answers, analytics engineering builds the gold tier (curated tables) they work from, and you own the platform underneath it, so those tables arrive complete, on time and at a sensible cost. We are a small, AI-forward team. The whole team builds with AI coding agents, and part of this platform's job is to make our data usable by AI. We build and evaluate AI systems on real data, where a wrong answer has consequences, so evaluation is part of the work rather than something bolted on at the end. We want the person who looks at a 384 GB Spark driver and asks why. We are adding markets and data quickly, and we want a platform that grows by adding machines rather than by buying bigger ones. You will know what belongs on a single machine and what does not, and you will keep our…
