We’re looking for a Senior Data Reporting Engineer to join our Spotlight team to help us accomplish our mission to improve lives by learning from the experience of every cancer patient. Here's what you need to know about the role, our team and why Flatiron Health is the right next step in your career. 

What you’ll do

In this role, you will join a team of Data Reporting Engineers and Software Engineers who curate custom real-world evidence datasets to empower our life science partners to deliver better cancer treatments – deliver them faster, and develop them more cost effectively than existing alternatives. You will be responsible for technical execution of dataset curation, writing SQL and Python in a proprietary Extract Transform and Load (ETL) framework, and mentoring other Data Reporting Engineers.

You’ll work to dig into data nuances by partnering closely with cross functional team members like Research Oncologists and Quantitative Scientists to help develop new data variables. In addition, you’ll also:

• Help define business logic rules, using SQL and Python to turn those rules into derived data variables
• Work with engineering and cross functional leaders to define and develop processes to make the team more effective
• Write automated SQL checks to ensure data quality and integrity
• Integrate and link new data sources, work with upstream Flatiron teams on data requirements and quality thresholds
• Identify common needs across dataset requests, and move shared logic into templatized ETL code
• Own and improve the library of templatized ETL pipeline code
• Become an expert in our data models

The role offers well-defined opportunities for growth along individual contributor and/or managerial career paths as well as opportunities to scale the impact of the role across people and projects.

Who you are

You’re fluent in SQL, experienced working with complex datasets, excited to learn about the cancer patient journey, and are proactive in collaborating with cross-functional teammates and/or stakeholders. You’re a kind, passionate, and collaborative problem-solver who seeks and gives candid feedback, and values the chance to make an important impact. 

• You have 5+ years of experience working in a data engineering or similar role
• You have extensive experience in SQLite and PostgreSQL and/or are familiar with another SQL environment
• You have experience working with Python or a similar language
• You communicate effectively and empathetically with cross-functional stakeholders
• You are flexible and have exceptional problem-solving skills
• You thrive in a cross-functional environment 

Extra Credit

• You have experience working with ETL frameworks
• You previously served as tech lead
• You have healthcare industry knowledge/context (especially oncology specific knowledge)
