    In this role, you will:

    • Own the technical encounters workflow and reduce single-point-of-failure risk
    • Build encounter files and scalable pipelines for delivery to third parties
    • Ingest and process response files and create systems to measure encounter performance
    • Use SQL and Python to develop, automate, validate, and troubleshoot data workflows
    • Partner with internal teams to improve encounter completeness, accuracy, and timeliness


    Required Qualifications:

    • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or related technical field
    • 3+ years of professional experience building with SQL and Python
    • Data warehousing and data modeling experience in a professional environment, including star-schema modeling and report design
    • AWS Data Services (Redshift, Athena, S3, DMS, Glue, SageMaker, etc.)
    • Experience with workflow orchestration tools like Airflow
    • Experience building data solutions in a high-scale or high-expectation engineering environment
    • Demonstrated ownership and ability to design and implement solutions in a rapidly transforming environment


    Preferred Qualifications:

    • Experience with healthcare data exchange, external submissions, response processing, or performance measurement
    • Direct encounters experience within a payer, state agency, healthcare organization, or comparable environment
    • Ability to take end-to-end ownership of an operationally critical data workflow



    What Success Looks Like:

    • Own the Encounters Solution Architecture and implementation
    • Create reliable systems for outbound encounter files and inbound response processing
    • Improve measurable encounter completeness, accuracy, and timeliness



    Benefits:

    • Competitive salary and annual bonus opportunities
    • Remote with flexible hours
    • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
    • 401(k) with company match
    • Generous PTO, 10 paid company holidays, and paid parental leave
    • Career growth opportunities in a mission-driven organization
