To help make high-quality healthcare affordable and accessible for everyone.
Role
Who you are
- 8+ years of experience
- Experience with Java, Scala, and Python
- Experience with rules-based engines that lets internal and external users define business logic in a controlled fashion
- Experience developing and contributing to a domain specific language (DSL)
- Experience building production-hardened data pipelines, with consideration for performance, scalability, reliability, and repeatability. Familiarity with orchestration tools like Airflow or Prefect
- Experience building Spark jobs, as well as profiling and debugging them
- Experience rapidly prototyping new product concepts, especially for enterprise clients
- Understanding of data testing concepts and the ability to consistently apply them
- Knowledge of database fundamentals like indexing and SQL queries
- Experience managing production services and designing smooth deployment processes, ideally in AWS
What the job involves
- Build products that change the dynamics and incentives of the healthcare industry, changing a zero-sum game of competition between payers and providers into patient-centered collaboration
- Build interactive features including predictive analytics and dynamic modeling for our customers to gain insight into ways to improve
- Build the engine that will enable data scientists to build, iterate, and deploy analytics as code
- Manage our high stakes production environment, ensuring high availability/low latency and protecting our sensitive data with rigorous security
- Identify big opportunities to improve our technology and our products, blazing trails through ambiguity
- Mentor more junior engineers and, in turn, learn from more senior engineers, because we are learners, not knowers, and growing Nuna’s people is the most reliable way to scale our impact
- Work as part of a team, not in a silo - at Nuna, we rise by lifting others!
Our take
Medical data is a highly valuable resource for delivering actionable insights into the U.S. healthcare system. However, analysing enormous data sets to produce these insights is a fragmented and time-consuming process.
Nuna Incorporated uses cloud computing technology to provide an integrated data analysis platform for the U.S. healthcare sector. The startup unifies many analytic services into a single package, including tools that handle the aggregation, processing, and analysis of data. The data is collected from employers, health plans, and insurance policies to identify cost-saving opportunities to increase access to quality care.
Improving the U.S. healthcare system through mass data analysis is nothing new, but Nuna's cloud-based methods present opportunities for massive improvements in the speed and quality of producing valuable insights. Ultimately, the company aims to help healthcare providers make quality healthcare more affordable to low-income Americans. Exemplifying its successes, Nuna was selected to become part of the Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Health Tech Ecosystem, thus integrating the company into the US healthcare system.
