We’re looking for an experienced software engineer to join the Healthcare Data Products team. Our mission is to build scalable pipelines and platforms that transform raw clinical data into actionable insights, and to empower our clients to do the same. Whether it’s managing a 100+ source data lake or architecting Snowflake-native sharing solutions, your work directly impacts how cancer data is utilized across the industry.
What You’ll Do
As a Senior Engineer on the HC Data Products team, you will own the lifecycle of high-scale data applications. From our Snowflake data lake to customer-facing data retrieval interfaces, you will build systems that are robust, compliant, and performant. In addition, you’ll:
- Architect & Scale: Design and maintain complex data pipelines using Python, PySpark, Prefect, and Airflow to ingest data from hundreds of sources into Snowflake.
- Innovate Infrastructure: Transition our data delivery models toward modern Snowflake-native data sharing and high-performance Parquet extractions.
- Full-Stack Ownership: Support our EHR application and data export features by working across the stack, from Python backends to React frontends.
- Modernize Tooling: Use Terraform (via Spacelift), Docker, and GitLab CI/CD to ensure our infrastructure is code-driven, while leveraging Datadog and Metaplane for end-to-end system and data observability.
- High-Velocity Dev-Ex: Leverage cutting-edge AI-assisted development tools like Cursor and Claude Code to streamline workflows and focus on solving complex oncology data challenges.
- Collaborate: Partner with oncologists, product leaders, and data scientists to translate complex product and regulatory requirements into elegant technical solutions.
Who You Are
You're a kind, collaborative, and passionate problem-solver who thrives at the intersection of software engineering and data platform architecture.
