Data Engineering is responsible for the development and delivery of our most important asset—our data. With thousands of data sources from around the world, the team ensures that data is accurate, normalized, and delivered at a velocity that keeps up with real-world changes. As we expand our markets and the scope of data we provide to our customers, our team must scale to meet that demand.

The Data Lake is the foundation of H1’s platform, responsible for the validation, accuracy, standardization, and quality of the data powering every downstream product and team across the organization. You will help lead the evolution of this platform while supporting and mentoring a growing team of engineers.

You will:
- Architect, build, and scale distributed ETL/ELT pipelines and large-scale ingestion frameworks across structured and unstructured healthcare datasets.
- Lead the evolution of H1’s Data Lake architecture with a focus on scalability, observability, reliability, and cost optimization.
- Own and improve data quality, validation, normalization, and standardization workflows across thousands of global data sources.
- Design and optimize batch and near real-time data processing frameworks using cloud-native distributed systems.
- Optimize distributed compute and storage systems, including Spark workloads, query performance, partitioning strategies, and infrastructure efficiency.
- Drive improvements in monitoring, governance, operational excellence, and production reliability across the platform.
- Troubleshoot complex production data and infrastructure issues across distributed systems.
- Partner closely with Product, Infrastructure, Security, Compliance, and downstream engineering teams to support scalable and secure data delivery.
- Mentor engineers through technical leadership, architecture reviews, and engineering best practices.
- Help define technical roadmap priorities and contribute to long-term platform strategy and execution planning.
- Support production operations, incident response, and platform health as part of overall ownership of the Data Lake ecosystem.

- You have deep experience designing and scaling distributed data platforms and large-scale pipelines in cloud-native environments.
- You excel at building reliable, observable, and maintainable data systems supporting critical business and analytics workloads.
- You have strong expertise in distributed processing, performance optimization, and modern data architecture patterns.
- You are comfortable leading technical initiatives and influencing architecture decisions across teams.
- You communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- You enjoy mentoring engineers and helping raise the engineering bar across teams.
- You are energized by ownership, autonomy, and solving ambiguous technical challenges.
