About the Role

We are seeking a hands‑on Senior Data Engineer to design and implement a new data warehousing environment that connects resident and medical EMR data using Snowflake
. The ideal candidate is an experienced engineer who thrives in building data infrastructure from the ground up — not just a planner, but a doer who can execute.

Key Responsibilities

• Establish data orchestration and workflow automation using Apache Airflow
  , transitioning from an existing Dagster setup.
• Implement data security protocols
  , access control, and governance frameworks.
• Work closely with stakeholders to understand business data needs and integrate data from multiple sources.
• Set up and manage cloud infrastructure on AWS
  , ensuring scalability, performance, and reliability.
• Develop and optimize ETL/ELT pipelines for data ingestion, transformation, and processing.
• Collaborate with Dev Ops teams to automate deployments and maintain CI/CD pipelines.

Required Skills & Experience

• 7–8+ years of professional experience as a Data Engineer or Cloud Data Infrastructure Engineer
  .
• Strong experience with Snowflake
  , Airflow
  , and AWS (S3, Lambda, Athena, IAM, etc.).
• Proven ability to architect and implement data warehousing and data orchestration solutions from scratch.
• Hands‑on experience in Dev Ops and cloud infrastructure setup.
• Expertise in data modeling
  , ETL/ELT pipelines
  , and security best practices
  .
• Strong problem‑solving, communication, and execution skills — a self‑starter who can deliver with minimal supervision.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with healthcare data or EMR systems (e.g., Athena) is a plus.
• Background in Python
  , SQL
  , and infrastructure‑as‑code tools (Terraform, Cloud Formation).
• Prior experience migrating from Dagster to Airflow is highly desirable.
