This role leads Data Engineering delivery and governance for healthcare analytics and operational data products across multi-cloud environments. The manager will own end-to-end SDLC, testing and release management, CI/CD workflows, and Generative AI data foundation architecture using Vector and Graph databases.

  • Direct end-to-end SDLC for high-scale data infrastructure and program delivery commitments
  • Govern design and optimization of distributed data pipelines (GCP preferred) using DataForm or DataFlow
  • Architect and validate functional, integration, and performance testing; manage release management and CAB processes
  • Optimize operational velocity via forensic audits of estimations and story points and mitigation of technical dependencies
  • Provide technical leadership and evolve the data engineering ecosystem using JavaScript, Python, Spark, CI/CD (Airflow, Jenkins), and AI/ML infrastructure for LLM orchestration

You will govern distributed data pipelines using DataForm/DataFlow and deliver robust functional, integration, and performance testing to protect production stability. The technical scope includes Generative AI-ready data foundations with Pinecone and Weaviate, LLM orchestration, and healthcare data standards including HL7 and FHIR for EHR systems, alongside CI/CD automation using Airflow and Jenkins.

The ideal candidate is a data engineering leader with strong experience owning end-to-end SDLC for high-scale data infrastructure and governing distributed data pipelines in multi-cloud environments, preferably Google Cloud Platform. They also have hands-on experience with Generative AI data foundations, including Vector and Graph databases (Pinecone, Weaviate) and LLM orchestration, plus healthcare domain knowledge (HL7, FHIR, EHR systems).
