Thyme Care is a value-based oncology care enabler that combines human support, technology, and AI to improve cancer care outcomes and reduce costs. The Senior Platform Engineer will own platform and developer-experience systems for reliable, scalable data pipelines and tooling, lead the migration to Dagster, enhance dbt and Databricks infrastructure, and mentor engineers.
Responsibilities
- Lead our team’s orchestration consolidation to Dagster end-to-end, from technical design through implementation and rollout
- Contribute to our custom dbt-core infrastructure that has scaled to over 50 dbt projects and 15 thousand models
- Design and implement the Python abstractions our data tooling is built on, so that a new project or pipeline inherits consistent structure and conventions instead of reinventing them
- Develop proactive monitoring and alerting for our tooling and data pipelines
- Take ownership of both technical solutions and the growth of the engineering team by mentoring junior engineers and fostering a culture of learning, collaboration, and technical excellence
- Make Databricks easier to build on, developing the tooling, defaults, and guardrails that let our teams run their own workloads without needing to become platform experts
