Company mission
To solve one of the biggest and most meaningful opportunities in healthcare: reinvent how people living with chronic and rare diseases are supported.
Role
Who you are
- We're open on exact tools — we care about fundamentals and trajectory. You'll likely have most of the following:
- 3-5 years of professional data engineering experience
- Strong SQL: you write correct, readable SQL and understand relational data modeling
- Data experience: you've developed data pipelines and transformations in production environments
- Eagerness to learn: you take feedback well, ask good questions, and are excited to grow as a data engineer
- Nice to have: exposure to dbt, CDC / replication or orchestration tools (e.g. Estuary Flow, Debezium/Kafka, Airflow), a cloud data warehouse (ex. Redshift), a BI tool (ex. Sigma, Looker); comfort with PostgreSQL or a similar database
What the job involves
- You'll join an early and growing data engineering team that's shaping the foundations of our data platform. We're investing in a modern transformation layer, reliable pipelines, and richer in-product analytics for our clients and you'll have real influence over how that gets built
- You'll be one of the first data engineers on our team. This is hands-on, high-ownership work: building our transformation layer, strengthening our analytics pipelines, and creating the data models that power both internal reporting and the analytics our clients see inside the product
- Build data models: develop dbt models and SQL transformations, backed by tests, that turn raw data into reliable datasets
- Improve pipeline reliability: help monitor our replication and orchestrated pipelines, investigate data issues, and add quality checks
- Power reporting: build and refine the datasets and dashboards that internal teams and clients rely on
- Learn and grow: work closely with senior engineers, take part in code review, and steadily take on more ownership
- Our stack:
- Databases: PostgreSQL across our production and analytics environments, with room to grow into a cloud warehouse (ex. Redshift) as we scale
- Ingestion: CDC / streaming replication into analytics (evaluating tools like Estuary Flow and Debezium/Kafka)
- Transformation: building out a version-controlled, dbt-based staging/marts layer with data tests and CI/CD
- Orchestration: scheduled, observable pipeline runs (e.g. Airflow or similar)
- BI & embedded analytics: a modern BI and embedding platform (we use Sigma) for internal reporting and in-product client analytics, with a maturing semantic/metrics layer
- Domain: life sciences / healthcare data; comfort working in HIPAA-aware, PHI-handling environments is a plus
Our take
With speciality medicines now encompassing 93% of pharmaceutical companies’ drug approval and R&D pipelines, large biopharma companies struggle with the tech infrastructure to coordinate with stakeholders and customers. Courier Health alleviates this burden with its patient-based CRM platform, purpose-built for the biopharma industry.
Courier Health’s CRM platform helps companies coordinate with access, patient services and marketing teams through centralised management, data analytics and automated workflows. It ultimately acts as a way to merge all patient touchpoints into a centralised record system.
As one of the only custom-built patient-based CRM platforms on the market at present, Courier Health differs from custom-built software that can become expensive and unwieldy. Its Series A funding is being funnelled into product development and hiring across engineering and sales.
