About the Role

This is a fully hands-on, individual contributor Data Engineering role embedded within a large-scale healthcare data platform initiative. You'll be responsible for building and maintaining AWS-based data pipelines that ingest mainframe source data, process and validate it, and deliver clean, consumer-ready datasets — work that directly supports critical downstream analytics and operations.

What You'll Do

  • Stream and process mainframe source data into AWS S3, handling ingestion, reconciliation, and validation workflows.

  • Design and implement ETL/ELT pipelines using AWS Glue to curate and transform raw data into reliable, queryable datasets.

  • Provision clean, consumer-ready data through AWS Aurora/RDS PostgreSQL relational databases.

  • Manage S3 storage including data retention policies, archival strategies, and lifecycle management.

  • Automate deployments and orchestrate workflows using GitHub Actions and CI/CD pipelines.

  • Leverage AI tools to improve engineering productivity and automate data workflow processes.

  • Take ownership of deliverables and drive work to completion with minimal oversight.

What We're Looking For

  • 5+ years of professional Data Engineering experience delivering data pipelines, ETL/ELT workflows, or data platform solutions.

  • Hands-on production experience with AWS services including S3, Glue, and RDS/Aurora.

  • Proven experience building and maintaining real-time data streaming pipelines using Kafka.

  • Strong background in data reconciliation, data quality checks, and validation processes.

  • Experience with AWS RDS or Aurora PostgreSQL for data provisioning and querying.

  • Proficiency with GitHub repository management and GitHub Actions for CI/CD automation.

  • Experience using AI tools to automate workflows and boost productivity.

  • Experience with MongoDB or other NoSQL databases is a plus.

  • Familiarity with mainframe or legacy system data integration is a plus, but not required.
