  • Author Gold data products that incorporate specific business logic, metrics, and functional knowledge.
  • Promote data solutions to production through governed CI/CD pipelines while meeting quality and security checks.
  • Refactor bespoke and learning-stage work into durable, reusable, and production-grade assets.
  • Apply consistent development patterns, naming conventions, and connectivity standards across the data ecosystem.
  • Utilize AI and automation to accelerate build and testing processes without bypassing governance.
  • Perform performance-tuning and cost-optimization for Spark and SQL transformations at scale.

What we're looking for

  • 3+ years of experience building production-grade data solutions with depth in analytics engineering or equivalent business-plus-build work.
  • Hands-on experience with Databricks, Spark, Unity Catalog, SQL, and Python.
  • Familiarity with Snowflake and Teradata in addition to a Databricks-first stack (preferred).
  • Expert knowledge of dimensional and medallion (Silver/Gold) modeling within an enterprise-agnostic data model.
  • Working knowledge of CI/CD pipelines, automated code evaluation, and controlled promotion to production.
  • Strong software-engineering discipline including version control (Git), code review, and writing efficient, reusable code.
  • Experience in complex, regulated enterprises, specifically healthcare or PBM data (preferred).
  • Ability to apply AI and automation to accelerate builds while preserving quality and governance.
