Manager, Data Acquisition Team

Zus is a shared health data platform designed to accelerate healthcare data interoperability by providing easy-to-use patient data via API, embedded components, and direct EHR integrations. Founded in 2021 by Jonathan Bush, co-founder and former CEO of athenahealth, Zus partners with HIEs and other data networks to aggregate patient clinical history and then translates that history into user-friendly information at the point of care. Zus's mission is to catalyze healthcare's greatest inventors by maximizing the value of patient insights - so that they can build up, not around.

We are seeking an experienced leader to lead and expand one of our Data Acquisition (DA) teams.  The DA teams are responsible for collecting health data from a broad range of internal and external sources and making that data useful for users of the Zus platform.  Our work includes building tools that interact with external health data networks to collect information about our patients and load it into the Zus data stores at high volume.  We also develop and manage the services used by customers and internal stakeholders to request that data.  The ideal candidate will be excited and empowered to take on the challenge of unifying diverse health care data sources to bring a clear picture of patient needs to our customers in ways that the developers of said data sources never thought or cared about.

You will work on data pipelines that operate on large scale data using a variety of AWS services (Step Functions, Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, etc).  You will also be responsible for multiple RESTful services that are used both internally and externally.  Go is our language of choice, although we also have some components written in NodeJS. The team is responsible for deploying, maintaining, and operating its pipelines and services.

This is an exciting time to join Zus, and DA in particular, as we are growing and transforming both the team and our infrastructure to evolve to our next state.

Our Zus engineering teams are all US-based, and we hire only in the US.  In Data Acquisition, we work across a collection of US timezones and also collaborate with our development partners in Central European Time.  Zus supports both remote work and hybrid work in the Boston area with an office near South Station, and our teams are a mix of both styles of work.  We actively work to make sure all voices are heard and information is shared regardless of your work location.

We will offer you…

• Competitive compensation that reflects the value you bring to the team a combination of cash and equity

• Robust benefits that include health insurance, wellness benefits, 401k with a match, unlimited PTO

• Opportunity to work alongside a passionate team that is determined to help change the world (and have fun doing it)

Please Note: Research shows that candidates from underrepresented backgrounds often don’t apply unless they meet 100% of the job criteria. While we have worked to consolidate the minimum qualifications for each role, we aren’t looking for someone who checks each box on a page; we’re looking for active learners and people who care about disrupting the current healthcare system with their unique experiences.

We do not conduct interviews by text nor will we send you a job offer unless you've interviewed with multiple people, including the Director of People & Talent, over video interviews. Job scams do exist so please be careful with your personal information.
