📋 Description

• Monitor daily Snowflake loads, file ingestion, and scheduled jobs; confirm expected files arrive, land correctly, and process without error • Operate and maintain drop-zone / upload-zone, data-lake, and SFTP file movement (e.g., Couchdrop, Azure Data Factory, service-account–based moves); triage failures and rejected files • Respond to file, load, and data-quality issues in a timely, well-documented way; escalate and coordinate with data engineering, pre-processing, and IT as needed • Maintain and act on file-level monitoring and alerting — “expected vs. received” tracking, format/validation alerts, and hold-folder sweeps • Serve as trained backup for core data-warehouse operations so critical pipelines and client deliverables continue during absences and peak periods • Learn and document existing pipelines, jobs, schedules, and troubleshooting steps so recurring work is reproducible and not tied to a single person or personal account • Support recurring client and regulatory file deliverables (e.g., monthly stop-loss, claims, and accumulator files) on a shared, documented schedule • Build and maintain tables, views, and dbt models under direction; support data-model, data-vault, and schema work for reporting and analytics • Develop and maintain crawlers, file validators, and file-rejection rules; help automate manual file downloads and uploads into the warehouse • Assist with Snowflake administration tasks — role and grant management, MFA/security SOP adherence, storage-account configuration, clone and backup routines — following established security standards • QA loaded data and reconcile discrepancies across source systems before release; support data-accuracy checks and audits • Maintain clear documentation: pipelines, data sources, schedules, SOPs, and runbooks (including dev-to-production process) • Partner with data engineering, pre-processing, analytics, and IT/security to gather requirements and hand work into production

🎯 Requirements

• Degree in a quantitative or technical field (Computer Science, Information Systems, Data, Engineering) or equivalent experience; this is an early-career role • 1–3 years of experience working with SQL and cloud data warehouse platforms, preferably Snowflake • Working SQL skills and familiarity with a cloud data warehouse (Snowflake preferred; comparable platforms considered) • Comfort with data files and pipelines — CSV/flat files, SFTP, encryption/PGP concepts, and troubleshooting file/load errors • Detail orientation, reliability, and a documentation habit; able to follow runbooks and escalate appropriately • Willingness to participate in a shared support/backup rotation for time-sensitive loads and deliverables • Exposure to dbt, Python for data work, Azure (Data Factory, storage/data lake), or Couchdrop-style file automation • Familiarity with data modeling, data vault, or warehouse monitoring and alerting • Healthcare, pharmacy benefit management (PBM), or claims/eligibility data exposure, and awareness of PHI/HIPAA handling • Familiarity with pharmacy data concepts (NDC, eligibility, accumulators, formulary) is a plus • Fully remote; reliable internet and a suitable home work environment • Occasional off-hours support may be required for time-sensitive loads, client files, or incident response • Willingness and ability to travel (10%-20%)

🏖️ Benefits

• Competitive compensation, including health, dental, vision and other benefits
