Sr Cloud Data Developer

The Role

This role is ideal for someone with a deep interest in building and managing data pipelines that support the training of machine learning models. You'll be instrumental in maintaining the data quality and system performance needed to develop high-impact products for healthcare environments, with a strong focus on scalability, reliability, and efficiency.

As a Senior Cloud Data Developer, you will:

• Design secure, efficient processes for ingesting data from private healthcare sources and web-scraped content.
• Use tools like Spark and Ray to build scalable, high-performance distributed data pipelines.
• Plan and orchestrate batch processing workflows across large datasets.
• Configure infrastructure (e.g., EKS, Kubernetes, Elasticsearch) to balance performance and cost.
• Maintain evolving data schemas based on shifting research needs and usage patterns.
• Work with governance, risk, and compliance leads to ensure adherence to regulatory frameworks (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA).
• Build and refine data cleaning and transformation workflows to support NLP and ML research teams.
• Implement strong security protocols (data encryption, anonymization, access control) to protect sensitive data.
• Maintain clear documentation for pipelines, workflows, and design decisions.
• Share knowledge with the broader data engineering team and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement.

Your Skills & Experience

We're looking for someone who has:

• Strong Python programming skills and solid SQL knowledge.
• A deep understanding of data quality practices and processing paradigms (ETL, ELT, etc.).
• Experience with distributed data processing frameworks like Spark, Ray, Dask, or Hadoop.
• Familiarity with GPU-based parallel processing.
• Hands-on experience with versioned data lakes (e.g., Apache Iceberg).
• Experience deploying containerized applications and using cloud infrastructure.
• Knowledge of data orchestration tools such as Airflow, Prefect, or Dagster.
• Bonus points for experience working with sensitive or clinical data.
