About the role
Every reading from every band has to arrive, be stored correctly, be available to the care team and the models within minutes, and be handled with the care personal health data deserves.
You will own that path end to end: ingestion, storage, transformation, access and the audit trail behind it.
What you will do
- PipelinesBuild and run the ingestion and transformation pipelines for device, app and clinical data.
- Data modelsDesign the schemas the app, dashboard and ML team build on, and keep them stable as the product grows.
- ReliabilityMonitor completeness and latency, and make missing or late data visible before the care team notices.
- Privacy and accessImplement access controls, retention and audit logging that match our data protection obligations in Kenya and India.
- AI-assisted developmentUse coding agents for the heavy lifting and review their output critically.
What we are looking for
- Three or more years building data pipelines in production. We can flex on years for an exceptional person.
- Strong SQL and Python, and experience with a modern orchestration and warehouse or lakehouse stack.
- Experience with streaming or near-real-time data is a strong plus.
- Careful with sensitive data, and familiar with the basics of health data protection.
- Pragmatic: you ship the simple thing that works and improve it with evidence.
This role is based in Ahmedabad, India.
