Position Summary

As a Data Engineer on the WELL Intelligence Platform, you will design, build, and operate reliable, secure, and scalable data pipelines and data products that power analytics, automation, and AI. This role is Snowflake-heavy and suited for a hands-on builder who can implement complex solutions, troubleshoot issues end-to-end, and continuously improve platform engineering quality.

You will work under the architectural direction of the Senior Data Architect while contributing to design discussions, proposing implementation approaches, and delivering high-quality code that meets platform standards for governance, security, performance, and observability.

Work split: during the initial platform build, expect ~90–100% focus on design/build and delivery. After implementation and stabilization, the role will typically shift to ~50/50 between platform maintenance/reliability and continued platform evolution (new sources, new data products, performance/cost improvements).

What You Will Be Doing

- Build Data Pipelines & Data Products

Implement robust batch and incremental ingestion pipelines.Implement event-driven ingestion patterns where required, ensuring reliability, ordering/duplication handling, and replay/backfill strategies.Build curated datasets and data products that are well-modeled, tested,



and documented.Develop reusable components and frameworks to accelerate onboarding of new sources.

- Transformations, Modeling & Serving

Implement transformation logic using strong SQL and appropriate tooling.Contribute to dimensional models and conformed entities under the guidance of the Senior Data Architect.Support semantic layer artifacts and standardized KPI definitions through consistent data structures.

- Platform Engineering Quality

Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for data workloads (tests, deployment, promotion across environments).Write production-grade code with version control, code review discipline, and automated testing.Implement data quality checks, reconcile counts/totals, and ensure pipeline idempotency and recoverability.

- Observability, Reliability & Operations

Instrument pipelines with monitoring/alerting and meaningful operational metrics.Troubleshoot failures across ingestion, compute, warehouse, orchestration, and upstream dependencies.Participate in on-call or incident response as defined; contribute to runbooks and post-incident improvements.

- Security, Governance & Compliance with Design

Implement access controls, secure connectivity, and least-privilege patterns.Apply privacy controls for PII/PHI handling (masking/tokenization patterns where required).Contribute metadata for cataloging and lineage; follow data governance standards.

- Collaboration & Continuous Improvement

Work with cross-functional teams (Cloud, Security, Apps, BI/Analytics) to deliver outcomes.Collaborate with stakeholders to validate requirements, definitions, and acceptance criteria.Propose optimizations that improve cost, performance, and delivery velocity.

Experience

You have:

4–8+ years of hands-on data engineering experience delivering production data pipelines.Experience building on modern cloud data platforms (Azure and/or AWS).

Core Technical Skills

Strong SQL (advanced query design, performance tuning) and strong Python for data engineering.Deep, hands-on experience with Snowflake (data modeling, performance/cost optimization, workload patterns) or equivalent modern warehouse experience with demonstrated ability to ramp quickly.Strong knowledge of data pipeline patterns: incremental loads, CDC, backfills,



and handling late-arriving data.Experience with orchestration tools (e.g., ADF, Airflow, Dagster, etc.).Experience with transformation frameworks (e.g., dbt or equivalent).Working knowledge of distributed compute concepts (e.g., Spark/Databricks) and when to use them.Exposure to eventing/streaming concepts (e.g., Kafka/Kinesis/Event Hubs) and the operational realities of mixed batch + event-driven pipelines.

Engineering Practices

Proficiency with Git, code reviews, testing, and CI/CD.Familiarity with Infrastructure-as-Code concepts and working effectively with Cloud Engineering.Ability to implement observability: logging, monitoring, alerting, and operational dashboards.

Data Fundamentals

Strong understanding of data modeling basics (dimensional modeling concepts, normalization trade-offs).Understanding of data governance concepts: lineage, cataloging, quality, and stewardship.

Nice to Have

Healthcare or other data-sensitive industry experience.Experience implementing row/column-level security, masking, tokenization, and secure data sharing.Experience supporting AI enablement (AI-ready datasets, feature patterns, or controlled access patterns).
