About the Role As a
Senior Data Engineer focused on AI/ML , you'll architect, build, and operate the specialized data infrastructure that powers Tebra’s intelligent features. You will serve as a
technical subject matter expert in data systems , partnering closely with Machine Learning Engineers to transform raw, messy healthcare data into high-quality training sets and real‑time inference features.
This is a
hands‑on
role where you will own large data sub‑systems, translating business requirements into software solutions that accelerate our ability to deploy AI. You’ll tackle technical challenges head‑on—from data versioning to feature serving—ensuring our ML models are fed by reliable, scalable, and performant pipelines.
Your Area of Focus
Architect and write software
that solves complex business problems, specifically designing scalable pipelines for feature extraction, training data generation, and model monitoring logs.
Own
and serve as a
Subject Matter Expert (SME)
for large software systems, such as the organization's
Feature Store
or
Data Lakehouse , ensuring data availability for both experimentation and production inference.
Continuously monitor data pipelines in production , detect data drift or quality anomalies, and implement automated recovery systems to ensure the reliability and freshness of features and training data over time.
Lead Engineering Design Reviews , providing well‑articulated and reasoned explanations for architecture decisions (e.g., choosing between batch processing for training vs. real‑time streaming for inference).
Write software frameworks
that can be extended by others on the team, such as automated data quality checks and schema validation tools that prevent training‑serving skew.
Translate business requirements into software solutions , bridging the gap between raw data sources and the structured inputs needed for advanced ML models.
Know when and how to optimize complex code , specifically tuning Spark jobs or SQL queries to
handle massive datasets
required for Large Language Model (LLM) fine‑tuning or deep learning.
Collaborate cross‑functionally
including ML engineers to implement
MLOps best practices , including data versioning, lineage tracking, and reproducibility.
Expert at scoping tasks , breaking down complex data infrastructure initiatives into manageable deliverables for the squad.
Your Professional Qualifications
5+ years
of professional software development experience.
Deep technical subject matter expertise
in 3+ general areas of software development (e.g.,
Big Data Processing, Distributed Systems, Data Modeling ).
3+ years
of hands‑on experience in Data Engineering with a focus on supporting analytics or data science teams.
Advanced proficiency in Python and SQL. You are comfortable writing production‑grade code for data transformation and orchestration (not just scripts).
Proven ability to
architect and write software
that enables ML at scale—moving beyond simple ETL to building robust data platforms.
Strong background in
modern data infrastructure
relevant to AI (e.g.,
Spark, Airflow, Kafka, Vector Databases ).
Experience with
Data Lake/Lakehouse architectures
(e.g., Databricks, Snowflake, Delta Lake) and understanding how to structure data for efficient model training.
Familiarity with
MLOps concepts : You understand the difference between a training set and a test set, and you know what "data leakage" is and how to prevent it in the pipeline.
Proven ability to
deploy and maintain data systems in production
with CI/CD, monitoring, and alerting.
Excellent technical communication
and a
product mindset —comfortable driving initiatives from concept to delivery.
Bonus Points
Background in
healthcare software operations
or working with structured business data.
Experience implementing or managing a
Feature Store
(e.g., Feast, Tecton).
Familiarity with
Data Versioning Control
tools (e.g., DVC, LakeFS).
Published research or conference papers
in data engineering, distributed systems, or machine learning.
Experience with
retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG)
pipelines or vector search infrastructure.li
Contributions to open‑source data or ML infrastructure projects.
