At Nuna, our mission is to make high-quality healthcare affordable and accessible for everyone. We are dedicated to tackling one of our nation’s biggest problems with ingenuity, creativity, and a keen moral compass.
Nuna is committed to simple principles: a rigorous understanding of data, modern technology, and most importantly, compassion and care for our fellow human. We want to know what really works, what doesn't—and why.
Nuna partners with healthcare payers, including government agencies and health plans, to turn data into learnings and information into meaning.
YOUR TEAM
We build technology to enable users (from data scientists to analysts to policy-makers) to understand healthcare data while ensuring its integrity, security and privacy. Our work runs the gamut from joining streams of messy real-world data to building queryable data warehouses to constructing visualizations and dashboards that provide actionable insight. We build systems that are auditable, automated, an accurate representation of the underlying data, and, most importantly, responsive to our end users' needs. We strive for a creative, collaborative engineering environment that implements best practices of peer review, readability, maintainability, and security of the code base and infrastructure.
The Nuna Data Serving Team is responsible for maintaining the database and data warehouse that support all customer-facing data queries, in addition to all APIs that support our UI and ad-hoc customer querying. This role is a backend role, but any frontend experience could be beneficial as the team directly powers Nuna’s web UI. This team works closely with healthcare data experts to design schemas that allow our users to see the critical information they need. This is a central team to Nuna’s success and will have a direct impact on the healthcare industry.
YOUR OPPORTUNITIES
In this role, you will play a pivotal role in shaping and executing our overall architecture and strategy. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with a highly skilled team of engineers and health data experts.
