  • Collaborate closely with the Reporting and Analytics team to develop and maintain optimal data pipeline architecture.
  • Act as a liaison between IT, Reporting and Analytics, and other departments, aligning data strategies and implementations while ensuring PHI confidentiality.
  • Explore new data solutions like Snowflake and Fivetran, evaluating their utility for enhancing our secure data infrastructure.
  • Assist stakeholders with data-related technical issues and support their data infrastructure needs.
  • Enforce robust data privacy and compliance protocols in alignment with relevant healthcare laws (PHIPA, PIPEDA, etc.).
Requirements 
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a relevant field; Master's degree is a plus.
  • Minimum of 3 years of experience in a Data Engineering role.
  • Hands-on experience with data platforms such as Microsoft 365, Sharepoint, Azure, Kipu, Salesforce, Hubspot, Netsuite, ADP, and Genesys.
  • Experience in facilitating data access for non-technical users while maintaining strict data privacy controls.
  • Strong scripting and programming skills, particularly in languages like Python, Java, Scala.
  • Knowledge of data privacy and security regulations, particularly in the healthcare sector.
  • Exceptional communication skills, both written and verbal.
  • Strong problem-solving abilities and meticulous attention to detail.
