Dublin, Ireland UnitedHealth Group Full time

Optum is a global organisation that delivers care, aided by technology to help millions of people live healthier lives. The work you do with our team will directly improve health outcomes by connecting people with the care, pharmacy benefits, data, and resources they need to feel their best. Here, you will find a culture guided by diversity and inclusion, talented peers, comprehensive benefits, and career development opportunities. Come make an impact on the communities we serve as you help us advance health equity on a global scale. Join us to start Caring. Connecting. Growing together.

About the role:

At UnitedHealth Group and Optum, we want to make healthcare work better for everyone. This depends on hiring the best and brightest. With a thriving ecosystem of investment and innovation, our business in Ireland is constantly growing to support the healthcare needs of the future. Our teams are at the forefront of building and adapting the latest technologies to propel healthcare forward in a way that better serves everyone. With our hands at work across all aspects of health, we use the most advanced development tools, AI, data science, and innovative approaches to make the healthcare system work better for everyone.

Today's RCM is inherently complex due to opaque and payer-specific adjudication rules, incurring significant waste and inefficiency. Optum Insight is committed to delivering new technology and processes to improve the Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) workflow using advances in Gen AI and other state-of-the-art technology that would ultimately benefit all stakeholders involved in the healthcare ecosystem — payers, providers, and patients.

As a Principal Data Engineer at Optum, you’ll be responsible for working with key business and technical partners to develop industry-leading data solutions that provide insights and analytics that drive efficiency and value to clients.

Careers with Optum offer flexible work arrangements and individuals who live and work in the Republic of Ireland will have the opportunity to split their monthly work hours between our Dublin or Letterkenny office and telecommuting from a home-based office.

Primary Responsibilities:

1. Work collaboratively with business partners, SMEs, and developers to ensure a shared understanding of business and technical requirements.
2. Design and build data pipelines to process terabytes of data.
3. Develop and recommend best practices regarding data ingestion, processing, cleaning, and standardizing of data (typically on Azure).
4. Create Docker images for various applications and deploy.
5. Design and build tests.
6. Troubleshoot production issues.
7. Analyze existing Data solutions and recommend automation/efficiency options.
8. Work on Proof of Concepts for Big Data and Data Science.
9. Demonstrate superior communication and presentation capabilities, adept at simplifying complex data insights for audiences without a technical background.
10. Serve as a leader/mentor.

You will be rewarded and recognized for your performance in an environment that will challenge you and give you clear direction on what it takes to succeed in your role, as well as providing development for other roles you may be interested in.

Required Qualifications:

1. Developing processes in Spark/Databricks.
2. Writing complex SQL queries.
3. Building ETL/data pipelines.
4. Cloud-based technologies, data migration/automation, and data engineering practices.
5. Exposure to Kubernetes or Docker.
6. Related/complementary open-source software platforms and languages (e.g., Scala, Python, Java, Linux).

Preferred Qualifications:

1. Cloud Technologies Certification e.g., Azure/Amazon AWS.
2. Azure Data Factory/Airflow.
3. Terraform.
4. Jenkins / Travis.
5. Microsoft Synapse.
6. Previous experience with Relational Databases (RDBMS) & Non-Relational Database.
7. Analytical and problem-solving experience applied to a Big Data environment and Distributed Processing.
8. Experience working in projects with agile/scrum methodologies.
9. Exposure to DevOps methodology.
10. Data warehousing principles (e.g., Kimball, Inmon, Data Vault), architecture and its implementation in large environments.

Please note you must currently be eligible to work and remain indefinitely without any restrictions in the country to which you are making an application. Proof will be required to support your application.

All telecommuters will be required to adhere to the UnitedHealth Group’s Telecommuter Policy.

At UnitedHealth Group, our mission is to help people live healthier lives and make the health system work better for everyone. We believe everyone–of every race, gender, sexuality, age, location and income–deserves the opportunity to live their healthiest life. Today, however, there are still far too many barriers to good health which are disproportionately experienced by people of color, historically marginalized groups and those with lower incomes. We are committed to mitigating our impact on the environment and enabling and delivering equitable care that addresses health disparities and improves health outcomes — an enterprise priority reflected in our mission.

Diversity creates a healthier atmosphere: Optum is an Equal Employment Opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to gender, civil status, family status, sexual orientation, disability, religion, age, race, and membership of the Traveller community, or any other characteristic protected by law. Optum is a drug-free workplace. 2024 Optum Services (Ireland) Limited. All rights reserved.
