Senior Data Engineer, Data Platform & Architecture

EarliPoint Health is seeking a highly capable and execution-oriented Senior Data Engineer to design and build the foundation of our next-generation data platform. This role will lead the architecture of our cloud-based data ecosystem, including both our analytical data warehouse and the underlying data models that support our application databases. This role will design reusable data products and customer-facing data delivery mechanisms supporting reporting, research collaborations, customer analytics, and regulatory submissions.

This role may include ETL or pipeline engineering, but additionally we are looking for someone who understands how data should be modeled, stored, governed, and accessed across enterprise organizations. The ideal candidate has experience designing scalable cloud data architectures, building modern data warehouses, and partnering closely with software engineers, data scientists, product managers, and clinical teams to ensure data systems are built correctly from the ground up.
