Senior Data Engineer - Healthcare

Sprinter Health • San Francisco, CA

5d • Hybrid

About The Position

We're looking for an entrepreneurial Data Engineer with interest in agentic AI and at least 5 years of general engineering experience who wants to make an impact as one of the founding engineers of our new AI-focused incubator teams. We want to make a difference in the lives of those falling between the cracks of the current healthcare system, and could use all the help we can get exploring how AI can help bridge those gaps. If you love working 0 → 1, we want to talk to you. While our core products are already humming, we're always looking for new ideas to expand access to care. And as a "startup within a startup", our incubator teams will have all of the freedom of a seed stage startup, but with the unfair advantage of direct customer relationships with 6 of the 10 largest US health plans and access to much deeper resources.

Requirements

• Deep understanding of scalable data systems, ETL/ELT pipelines, and observability best practices.
• Hands-on experience with BigQuery, Airflow, DBT, or AWS Glue.

• At least 1 year of experience working at the seed stage, whether as a cofounder or early engineer.
• Proficiency in Python.
• Familiarity with JS/TS.

Nice To Haves
