We're seeking a Principal Engineer to establish data architecture excellence across our engineering organization. As we transition to autonomous, stream-aligned teams, we need a hands-on data expert who can enable application teams to make sound data decisions independently.
This role works side-by-side with application engineers, not in isolation. Your peers will be full-stack and backend engineers building products. You need to understand application architecture, API design, and deployment practices - and bring deep data expertise to that context.
You come from an application development background and understand how data fits into the broader application architecture. You're hands-on and take ownership - you can architect complex data systems and roll up your sleeves to optimize them. You succeed by making others successful - you educate and empower rather than gatekeep. You speak the language of application engineers and can review their code, understand their challenges, and guide them to better data solutions. You understand trade-offs, know when to optimize for speed vs. perfection, and can influence without authority. You've run data systems in production at scale and understand what it takes to keep them performant and reliable.
GHX Engineering is transforming toward autonomous, stream-aligned teams with independent deployment capabilities. This role is central to that vision - establishing data architecture excellence that enables teams to move fast without creating future problems. You'll define data strategy for a growing engineering organization in healthcare technology, working directly with engineering leadership on this transformation.
