Job Description

Invitae is dedicated to bringing comprehensive genetic information into mainstream medicine to improve healthcare for billions of people. Our team is driven to make a difference for the patients we serve. We are leading the transformation of the genetics industry, by making genetic testing affordable and accessible for everyone to guide health decisions across all stages of life.

Invitae needs engineers with diverse backgrounds to help us achieve our mission. We are a cross-functional team of scientific domain experts and dedicated, curious engineers. We build systems that take massive amounts of genomic data, combine it with the world's scientific literature, add to it years of rigorously curated results, and package it all neatly for our scientists to consume. It's a lot of information. As the data gets bigger, our systems need to get better and faster. That's where you come in.

The role focuses specifically on the Patient Data Network, which includes Ciitizen, a health technology platform that enables patients with cancer and rare neurologic disorders to collect, digitize, and share their health information. This includes a wide array of consumer and enterprise products used by a variety of customers including patients, providers, biopharma, advocacy, and HIEs. Specific examples of these applications include the Patient Portal, Clinical Trial Matching, Healthcare Services Marketplace, Patient Cohort Manager, and Prism Reporting.

We are looking for a reliable and motivated Engineering Manager to join our Patient Data Network team who can manage our Data Platform Team in developing the data ingestion pipelines and data platform architecture that supports the analytical and reporting needs of internal stakeholders, data scientists, and our machine learning team, as well as externally facing products.

• Mentor development staff to ensure continual software engineering skill improvements and career growth
• Collaborate with technical and product teams to ensure high value software development deliverables
• Facilitate problem solving across teams and groups
• Translate business requirements across the company to best-in-class experiences

What you bring:

• Typically requires a minimum of 12 years of related experience with a Bachelor’s degree; or 8 years and a Master’s degree; or a PhD with 5 years experience. Any equivalent combination of training, education, and experience that provides the required skills, knowledge and abilities.
• 2+ years Leadership positions motivating and guiding team members in an agile development environment
• 7+ years of relevant experience in data platform development
• Experience with designing, implementing, and supporting a data platform including data processing and data access
• Experience designing software targeting ease of administration and support
