hirify.global is building an AI-powered health platform that combines lab testing, imaging, longitudinal data, and clinical guidance to help members understand and improve their health.

What you will do

• Build tracking infrastructure for product analytics, experimentation, and feature gates, including source-enforced event schemas.
• Develop Databricks Bronze–Silver–Gold data processing infrastructure with schema evolution, contract tests, backfills, freshness monitoring, and volume monitoring.

• Create self-service templates, local development and preview environments, policy-as-code for PHI, ownership routing for alerts, and progressive deployment gates.

Requirements

• Experience building internal platforms or infrastructure adopted by other engineers.
• Production experience operating data or ML systems, including on-call support and incident resolution.

• Experience designing and evolving interfaces and schemas used by other teams without breaking dependent systems.
• Experience with testing and CI for data or ML systems where correctness can be statistical and failures may be silent.
• 8+ years of engineering experience; demonstrated impact and built systems are valued over the number alone.
• Authorization to work in the United States or Canada is required.

Nice to have
