Serve as a subject matter expert in provider data, leading complex analyses to establish accurate provider identity, network status, affiliations, and hierarchy across disparate data sources.
Anticipate, diagnose, and resolve systemic provider data quality issues (e.g., NPI mismatches, Network data delivery issues, taxonomy drift, stale affiliations), while continuously monitoring data integrity and performance trends.
Design, develop, and maintain scalable, production-grade SQL, Python, and Databricks workflows that support provider analytics at enterprise scale.
Review, optimize, and provide technical guidance on analytical code produced by the team to ensure performance, reliability, consistency, and adherence to established best practices.
Translate ambiguous business and client questions into clear analytical approaches and guide the team in producing validated outputs and actionable recommendations.
Partner cross-functionally with Data Engineering, Product, Web Development, and client-facing teams to design analytics solutions, resolve complex ad hoc cases, and support strategic initiatives.
Establish and uphold analytical standards, documentation, and validation practices to ensure long-term reliability, auditability, and usability of provider data assets.
Demonstrate strong ownership, communication, and accountability while independently leading complex analytical initiatives.

Reasonable accommodation may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform essential duties.

What You’ll Bring to the Team:

5+ years of data analysis experience, including significant hands-on work with healthcare data (provider, claims, eligibility, or related domains).
2+ years of experience leading analytical work or small teams, including setting expectations, reviewing deliverables, and supporting day-to-day execution.
Strong ownership, communication, and accountability while leading complex analytical initiatives directly and through a team, ensuring high-quality execution and timely delivery.
Proven track record of identifying root causes, driving durable solutions, and maintaining exceptional attention to data accuracy, validation, and quality.
Highly organized and self-motivated, with the ability to manage multiple priorities independently while collaborating effectively with others.
Advanced SQL proficiency for querying and transforming large, complex datasets, including writing optimized, production-ready queries and reviewing others’ work.
Strong experience using Python for data analysis, transformation, and automation (e.g., Pandas, PySpark).
Solid understanding of healthcare provider data, including familiarity with NPPES, PECOS, NUCC, and other industry-standard reference datasets.
Proficiency with Excel for data validation, reporting, and ad hoc analysis.

A plus if you have:

Master’s degree
