Responsibilities:
- Design the architecture for an event-driven pipeline moving Partner data from the HFPP warehouse into deployed fraud signals and Partner alerts

- Own sign-off on the pipeline architecture and material architectural changes
- Establish standards for scalability, failure handling, and onboarding new fraud signals
- Build proof-of-concept integrations and the most complex event-driven pipeline components
- Design within data-security and PII/PHI constraints established by a separate compliance function
- Collaborate with Data Science on representing approved fraud-signal logic in the pipeline

- Experience with healthcare claims data or another highly regulated, high-scrutiny data domain is desired
- Experience designing alerting/notification systems tied to a customer- or partner-facing portal is desired
