  • Ensure data accuracy, quality, and compliance through governance, observability, and monitoring best practices.
  • Own pipeline incident response with speed and clear communication, identifying root causes that prevent recurrence rather than just restoring service.

  • Deep Snowflake expertise, including warehouse configuration, RBAC and role hierarchy design, connector management, cost optimization, and performance tuning at the compute layer.
  • Expert SQL, dbt, and Python skills, with experience building complex, high-performance queries and production-grade pipeline code.
  • Proven experience building and maintaining source pipelines, including CDC via logical replication, Fivetran or Airbyte connector management, custom API ingestion, orchestration, and S3-based ingestion patterns.
  • Strong understanding of data modeling, governance, privacy, and observability best practices.
  • AWS infrastructure fluency, including RDS parameter groups, S3 bucket policies, IAM role configuration, VPC networking, and security groups.
  • Preferred: Experience working across application systems and data systems, with an understanding of how they interact.
  • Preferred: Experience with data platform migrations, specifically running legacy and new environments in parallel.
  • Preferred: Familiarity with healthcare or other regulated data (HIPAA compliance).
  • Preferred: Experience with Terraform or equivalent infrastructure-as-code tooling.

About Verse Medical

Software platform for in-home healthcare

As healthcare costs have increased, the patient's home has become incredibly important as a site of care. Yet, patients recovering at home are highly underserved. Patients can only get better at home if they receive the high-quality care that they need reliably. The existing in-home care process involves patchwork of different vendors, all connected through faxes by nurses. We're building modern, robust software that solves this challenge and brings this market online.
