Full Job Description
About the Role

Rula is looking for a Staff Analytics Engineer to anchor our Universal Horizontal Platform Layer. Reporting directly to the Senior Engineering Manager, you will serve as the structural enforcer and architectural leader for our data ecosystem, guiding our domain engineers through an organization-wide migration to Snowflake and Medallion architectures.

This is a highly strategic, systems-level engineering role. You will balance deep technical execution with the professional backbone required to negotiate data contracts, push back on executive scope creep, and align platform infrastructure with Rula's broad business strategy.

What You'll Do:
  • Platform Architecture & Snowflake Migration: Lead the overarching design and execution of Rula's migration to Snowflake, establishing the structural blueprints and Medallion execution playbooks that empower domain pods to build reliably without disrupting their delivery SLAs.
  • Strategic Scoping & Executive Partnership: Act as a critical technical bridge between engineering and business strategy. Utilize your strengths to directly negotiate technical boundaries with leadership, establish strict intake guardrails, and help guide the vision of the data landscape.
  • Warehouse Optimization & Cost Governance: Own Snowflake compute-cost profiling and warehouse performance globally. Establish and govern the financial and operational baselines for our cloud infrastructure to protect the balance sheet as our clinical data volume scales.
  • CI/CD Defense & Quality Assurance: Design, build, and strictly enforce automated CI/CD testing gates within GitHub to actively intercept query regressions, schema anomalies, and unoptimized code before pull request compilation.
  • Team-Scaled AI Multiplier: Drive technical leverage across the entire organization by systematically scaling the adoption of AI-assisted tools-such as productizing prompt banks, integrating AI into CI/CD code reviews, and automating boilerplate code generation-to accelerate total team delivery velocity.


Required Qualifications
  • 6+ years of professional experience in analytics engineering, data architecture, or data engineering, with a proven track record of operating at a systems-level to drive organization-wide data strategies, cross-domain workflows, or platform architecture.
  • Experience leading the architectural design, optimization, or migration of a modern cloud data platform (Snowflake, Redshift, BigQuery) supporting multiple cross-functional business domains.
  • Expert-level SQL proficiency and production experience designing data models using Medallion architectures.
  • 2+ years of hands-on experience utilizing dbt to build, orchestrate, and test production-grade ELT pipelines.
  • Deep expertise in production git workflows with a proven ability to design, build, and enforce automated CI/CD testing gates.
  • Proven experience acting as a bridge between technical execution and business strategy, with strong judgment to surface risks, discuss trade-offs, and negotiate intake guardrails with leadership.


Preferred Qualifications

While having the preferred qualifications enhances your candidacy, having all of them is not mandatory. We encourage all interested applicants to apply, even those who may not meet every preferred requirement.
  • Demonstrated track record of driving technical leverage by scaling the adoption of AI-assisted tools across a team (e.g., productizing prompt banks or integrating AI code reviews).
  • Experience building infrastructure that integrates with headless BI semantic layers (e.g., Cube.dev) and downstream AI agentic workflows (e.g., LibreChat).
  • Prior experience working with HIPAA-compliant data environments, electronic health records (EHR), or digital health operations.
  • Advanced knowledge of implementing robust RBAC frameworks, hashing, and masking strategies for sensitive clinical data.
  • Experience managing changing business processes or schema drift to gracefully adapt data models.
  • Basic Python proficiency for pipeline and tool orchestration.


We're serious about your well-being! As part of our team, full-time employees receive:
  • 100% remote work environment: Working hours to support a healthy work-life balance, ensuring you can meet both professional and personal commitments (must be based in United States, currently not hiring in Hawaii)
  • Attractive pay and benefits: Full transparency of pay ranges regardless of where you live in the United States
  • Comprehensive health benefits: Medical, dental, vision, life, disability, and FSA/HSA
  • 401(k) plan access: Start saving for your future
  • Generous time-off policies: Including 2 company-wide shutdown weeks each year for self-care (for most employees)
  • Paid parental leave: Available for all parents, including birthing, non-birthing, adopting, and fostering
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP): Supporting your mental and physical health
  • Quarterly department stipend: Fun team-building activities or in-person gatherings
  • Community and employee resource groups: Participate in groups that celebrate employee identity and lived experiences, fostering a sense of community and belonging for all
  • Home office stipend: New hire home office stipend & $50 monthly stipend to help cover internet or cell phone expenses
  • Wellness at Rula program: Year-round wellness initiatives and a $50/month wellness stipend
