Edinburgh, United Kingdom Best Buy Full time

As a Senior Data Engineer you will be revamping our patient admissions/enrollment capabilities - we’d like to introduce support for net new fields captured within that process, as well as define the most appropriate locations for that data to be stored so that it can be used within different workflows of the future. As a specialist in data engineering, you will help us throughout the process by assisting software engineers and driving the project from a data perspective.

As well as helping support our services across our software platform and applications, you will also help support and evolve our existing data products and provide analytical support to external clients and Current Health teams.

This role is remote eligible, which means you would work virtually from home or another non-Best Buy Health location.


What you’ll do

You will also be working closely with the data team who are building a new data platform whereby we will make all our data accessible in one place and build data products that use this data thus allowing our engineers, data scientists, bio-medical engineers, and clinical researchers to perform analytics which will help us to drive patient engagement, clinical impact, and client growth.

We would describe ourselves as self-organising and collaborative with a continuous improvement mindset. We value knowledge sharing and making decisions as a team, regardless of role or level of seniority. We encourage collaboration via e.g.pair programming and holding regular knowledge share sessions. We seek to continuously improve as a team, and we also look to support each other's growth.
