About the role

<div class="content-intro">Machinify is a leading healthcare intelligence company with expertise across the payment continuum, delivering unmatched value, transparency, and efficiency to health plan clients across the country. Deployed by over 85 health plans, including many of the top 20, and representing more than 270 million lives, Machinify brings together a fully configurable and content-rich, AI-powered platform along with best-in-class expertise. We’re constantly reimagining what’s possible in our industry, creating disruptively simple, powerfully clear ways to maximize financial outcomes and drive down healthcare costs.</div>As a Senior Data Engineer, you’ll be at the heart of transforming raw external data into powerful, trusted datasets that drive payment, product, and operational decisions. You’ll work closely with product managers, data scientists, subject matter experts, engineers, and customer teams to build, scale, and refine production pipelines — ensuring data is accurate, observable, and actionable.    You’ll also play a critical role in onboarding new customers, integrating their raw data into our internal models. Your pipelines will directly power the company’s ML models, dashboards, and core product experiences. If you enjoy owning end-to-end workflows, shaping data standards, and driving impact in a fast-moving environment, this is your opportunity.    What You’ll Do <ul> <li data-leveltext="·"
