Role
Who you are
- Minimum 3 year's hands-on experience with Python for data. Python is our core competency and so it’s important that you be intimately familiar with collaborative Python dev
- Very comfortable with SQL, preferably PostgreSQL
- Growth mindset: a love of learning and resilience in the face of odds
- Team mindset: we’re in this together, and we support one another in our pursuit
Desirable
- CI/CD and modern software testing
- Foundational AWS products and systems, such as RDS, S3 and EC2
What the job involves
- We are seeking a Data Engineer to help us take our data infrastructure and pipelines to the next level. You will help us rebuild our data warehouse from scratch, which is the backbone of the company’s product offerings to prestigious healthcare clients (including global medical device companies, state-wide US hospital networks, the NHS and large government institutions)
- We are building something big together. We handle data for hundreds of thousands of patients across the US and the UK, as well as other markets including Australia. We take seriously our responsibility to properly manage the quantity and quality of this data. We’re growing very fast globally, so we look for people who can prioritise their time and efforts in a high-growth environment. Above all we want to hire high-energy people that we’ll love working with every day!
- Helping to rebuild our data warehouse from the foundations. We're engineering two new systems: an operational warehouse (critical for our products) and an analytical warehouse (the hub for our clients and analysts). You will be core to the design and implementation of both systems. Our current tech stack involves Python, PostgreSQL on RDS, Airflow and Snowflake, and we would build with whatever else it takes to create the best warehousing systems
- Helping to rebuild our reporting interfaces across the product and the analytics warehouse. You would be core to creating the infrastructure for this effort as well, so our analysts and customers can access the data they need
- Working with our backend team to assist with data optimisation, real-time data queries, and other infrastructure projects
- Proactively analysing and improving the quality of our systems: including performance, scalability, maintainability, test coverage and documentation
- Reporting to the Lead Data Engineer
Application process
- 1. Apply via WTTJ
- 2. Video call with a member of the Data Team
- 3. In person technical interview with Lead Data Engineer and CTO

Our take
The strain placed on healthcare systems in recent years has galvanised substantial and necessary changes in how these institutions operate. One of them is remote patient monitoring. hopper healthcare's app allows patients to easily and frequently connect with their care providers, record their own recovery data, and track outcomes. These data sets become insights, which are subsequently shared with major orthopaedic research institutions worldwide.
It’s a neat win/win dovetail on hopper's part, one that addresses patients’ need for on-demand, quality care, and researchers’ need to underpin their work with broad, real-world data sets. The company unifies EMR, cloud infrastructure, patient management tools and agentic AI and IT services into one intelligent operating system, helping healthcare teams work smarter and improve patient care.
Some scepticism has been voiced among both caregivers and patients about the relative quality of telemedical care. However, the lengthy patient backlogs and surgery cancellations of recent years have highlighted that offering remote healthcare options is, for many, not an option but a necessity.
