• Convert and migrate data from legacy systems and databases (such as Microsoft SQL Server) to the modern data platform.
• Develop reusable frameworks, tools, and automation in Python, PySpark, and SQL to streamline ETL, reduce manual onboarding effort, and improve data accessibility.
• Implement automated data validation, quality checks, and reconciliation, and resolve discrepancies promptly.
• Monitor, maintain, and troubleshoot customer data feeds and file processing after setup, using processing metrics to identify further automation and performance and cost improvements.
• Integrate and validate EMR data (e.g., Epic, Cerner, Meditech, Athenahealth) with claims data to support comprehensive reporting.
• Collaborate with Implementation, Product, Support, and IT teams to clarify requirements, data mapping, and delivery priorities.
• Resolve onboarding escalations on data ingestion and integration issues quickly, performing root‑cause analysis and permanent fixes.
• Keep onboarding work items on track in project management tools (e.g., Monday.com), raise risks early, and provide regular status updates to internal stakeholders.
• Document pipelines, data flows, and runbooks, and transition completed work to Support with the documentation needed to operate it.
• Mentor junior engineers, conduct code reviews, and share technical knowledge across the team.
• Adhere to and support HIPAA and other regulatory requirements and maintain data integrity and security.
• Other duties as needed.
