Principal Data Engineer
At Nuna, our mission is to make high-quality healthcare affordable and accessible for everyone. We are dedicated to tackling one of our nation’s biggest problems with ingenuity, creativity, and a keen moral compass.
Nuna is committed to simple principles: a rigorous understanding of data, modern technology, and most importantly, compassion and care for our fellow human. We want to know what really works, what doesn't—and why.
YOUR TEAM
Nuna’s value platform will make payers and providers successful in value-based care arrangements to improve outcomes and lower the cost of care. Our work runs the gamut from joining streams of messy real-world data to building queryable data warehouses to constructing visualizations and dashboards that provide actionable insight. We build systems that are auditable, as automated as possible, an accurate representation of the underlying data, and, most importantly, responsive to our end users' needs. We strive for a creative, collaborative engineering environment that implements best practices of peer review, readability, maintainability, and security of the code base and infrastructure.
As one of the Principal Engineers for Nuna’s Value Platform team, you'll build products that change the dynamics and incentives of the healthcare industry, changing a zero-sum game of competition between payers and providers into patient-centered collaboration. You’ll create and refine architectural designs, integrations, and development processes across a team of 40+ engineers. You’ll take a leadership role in defining, architecting, and building the integrations between Nuna’s value platform third-party provider/population-health-entity systems that will help providers better engage and manage their patients.
YOUR OPPORTUNITIES
In this role, you will:
- Drive development of an analyst-friendly data warehouse to support payer and provider users
- Lead the design, implementation, and orchestration of the supporting data processing infrastructure
- Manage and optimize the data lake architecture
- Provide technical guidance to software development teams, training to engineers, and vision to executive teams
- Help create an environment in which developers can thrive
- Identify significant opportunities to improve our products and underlying technology blazing trails through ambiguity
- Collaborate with other principal and lead engineers on the overall architecture of our go-forward product
- Align cross functional teams with effective communication, and drive company culture with Nuna’s core values
- Mentor more junior engineers and, in turn, learn from more senior engineers, because we are learners, not knowers, and growing Nuna’s people is the most reliable way to scale our impact
- Work as part of a team, not in a silo - at Nuna, we rise by lifting others!
