Job Summary

Are you wicked smart? Are you a tinkerer at heart who likes to work on the cutting edge and push the bounds of what is possible? The Weil Institute for Critical Care Research and Innovation, within Michigan Medicine?s Department of Emergency Medicine, is in search of a Data Engineer to join our DataOps team. This role will lead our data mining initiatives and develop data pipelines to automate data extraction.

This position offers a unique opportunity to work hand-in-hand with our Machine Learning Specialists and clinical collaborators to help them get the data needed to build predictive models. Unlike traditional research teams, the Weil Institute is focused on operating like a startup and getting products to market in order to ensure that our work can benefit patients sooner rather than later.

As a Data Engineer, you will be responsible for developing and managing data pipelines for large sets of PHI data including data extraction, transformation, cataloging, monitoring, integrity, administration, and security. These sets of data include structured EHR data, waveforms from bedside monitors, radiological images, clinician notes (NLP), ventilator data, as well as all supporting data sets and any future data sets that may be required.

Success in this role requires an ambitious and self-motivated individual capable of identifying areas for improvement, designing solutions, strategic communication, and prioritizing work to ensure that we are meeting our goals. This often involves learning new languages, technologies, and skills in order to ensure that we are delivering the best solutions possible. An inquisitive individual with a strong desire for continuous improvement and always taking the next best step is a strong fit at the Weil Institute.
