At Teal Health, we’re on a mission to provide women with the tools, access, and resources they need to make informed decisions about their health, starting with cervical cancer screening.

We believe it’s time to redesign women’s health and put women, their preferences, and their experiences at the center. By offering women the choice to self-collect from the comfort and convenience of home, we can expand access to life-saving preventive care and help eliminate cervical cancer in the U.S.

We boldly champion the future women deserve. And we do this through our values, which are to elevate women, expect exceptional, and learning, every day. The Teal team lives our values and uses them to guide our decisions when building Teal.

Teal Health is looking for a Senior Data Engineer to own the foundation that every decision at Teal runs on: our data warehouse, our pipelines, and the modeled data layer in Omni that the rest of the company queries. As Teal reaches more patients, payers, and provider partners, the questions we need to answer are getting harder and the data behind them is getting messier.

This person will own that layer end to end, from raw source to trusted, analysis-ready models.

Teal’s data now spans our own backend, Hub Spot, Post Hog, AWS, and a long list of marketing and ad platforms. All of it is landed through Fivetran and transformed in dbt. We need someone who ensures our data is reliable and easy to access. This role will focus on our data pipelines, the warehouse, and the semantic layer underneath and partner with Analytics on dashboarding and visualizations.

What You’ll Do

• Own Teal’s data warehouse, including its architecture, performance, reliability, and documentation.

• Manage and extend Fivetran ingestion across our source systems, and troubleshoot connector and schema issues as they come up.

• Build and maintain our dbt transformation layer. It follows a staging → reporting pattern from raw sources to business-ready models for forecasting, marketing, Hub Spot, AWS, Post Hog, and inventory.

• Own the Omni data layer: define the relationships, joins, and modeled fields that let teammates answer cross-system questions on their own.

• Partner with our analytics lead so dashboards sit on a data layer that is accurate, consistent, and well-defined.

• Take on integrations work early on, including connecting new data sources and supporting partner data flows.

• Write tests and documentation in dbt so the team can trust and understand what’s in the warehouse.

• Set standards for data modeling, testing, and documentation, and help shape how the data team grows.

• Work from a ticketed backlog (Jira or similar), scoping requests from across the company and keeping priorities visible.
