About the role
At H1, we believe access to the best healthcare information is a basic human right. Our mission is to provide a platform that can optimally inform every doctor interaction globally. This promotes health equity and builds needed trust in healthcare systems. To accomplish this our teams harness the power of data and AI-technology to unlock groundbreaking medical insights and convert those insights into action that result in optimal patient outcomes and accelerates an equitable and inclusive drug development lifecycle. Visit h1.co to learn more about us.
Data Engineering is responsible for the development and delivery of our most important asset - our data. Looking across thousands of data sources from across the globe, the data engineering team is responsible for making sense out of that data to create the world’s most extensive and comprehensive knowledge base of healthcare stakeholders and the ecosystem they influence. It is our job to ensure that only accurate, normalized data flows through to our customers, and at a velocity that keeps up with the changes in the real world.
WHAT YOU'LL DO AT H1As a Data Engineer on the H1DN Team, you will play a key role in building scalable data pipelines and enrichment workflows that transform raw client data into accurate, actionable insights. With minimal guidance, you will focus on data ingestion and enrichment, ensuring seamless integration of client data from diverse sources (CSV, Parquet, JSON, APIs) while tackling challenges related to scalability, data quality, and standardization.
You will:- Develop and enhance processes to enrich raw or partially processed data using established business logic, ensuring it is accurate and ready for product use.- Build and maintain scalable and reliable data pipelines that support the team’s enrichment workflows.- Integrate enriched data from core platforms (e.g., CT platform) into broader data systems, applying necessary transformations and aligning with business requirements.- Contribute to code reviews, holding a high bar for quality and aligning with organizational engineering guidelines.- Follow development workflows, including coding, testing, deployment, and monitoring, to ensure quality and efficiency.- Work collaboratively with team members and escalate issues appropriately when challenges arise.- Contribute to the understanding and execution of tasks with a strong focus on accuracy, scalability, and performance.
ABOUT YOUYou have strong hands-on technical skills and experience in data engineering, with a track record of building and maintaining scalable data systems and pipelines. You excel at solving data engineering challenges and contributing to innovative solutions.- Experience developing and optimizing data workflows, applying business logic for data enrichment, and addressing technical challenges with creative solutions- Strong knowledge of building and scaling data infrastructure, including integration with core platforms- Experience working with data quality challenges and implementing validation mechanisms- Self-motivated with the ability to manage tasks and collaborate effectively within a team- Ability to align work with broader organizational goals and contribute to strategic initiatives- Proactively identifies potential risks and helps implement solutions early in the project lifecycle- Eager to learn, grow, and contribute to a collaborative, high-performing engineering team
REQUIREMENTS - 3+ years of experience in data engineering, specializing in building scalable data pipelines and enrichment processes, with a track record of working with large datasets, including ingestion, transformation, and optimization- Proficiency in Spark, Python, and SQL for building scalable data processing pipelines- Hands-on experience with Kubernetes for container orchestration and deployment- Strong background in AWS, including services such as S3, Lambda, ECS, and RDS for data infrastructure- Experience with EMR and Databricks to optimize large-scale data workflows- Has an understanding of LLM usage in production
COMPENSATIONThis role pays $100,000 to $120,000 per year, based on experience, in addition to stock options.
