Role Description

We are seeking a Principal Data Analyst to serve as a technical and analytical leader across our healthcare data ecosystem. This role goes far beyond report building - you will define analytic standards, design core data models, and own the clinical and financial logic that leadership relies on to run the business working across Epic Clarity, medical claims, pharmacy claims, and other core data assets. This is a hands-on, senior-level individual contributor role for someone who combines deep Epic expertise with strong healthcare domain knowledge and modern analytics / engineering practices.

  • Master enterprise-level analytics across Habitat’s Epic Clarity, medical claims, pharmacy claims, and related healthcare and operational data assets.
  • Translate complex clinical and financial questions into durable, scalable analytic solutions designed and developed with a “platform-first mentality” to enable other developers.
  • Support executive and clinical leadership decision-making by designing, building, and maintaining trusted dashboards, KPI definitions, and “curated” analytic DataMarts.
  • Use SQL, Power BI, Git, and Jira in a manner that raises the bar and sets the standards for best practices within the broader data team.
  • Partner with data engineering to design and govern canonical data marts, ETL processes, and documented business rules that ensure consistency across all downstream analytics.
  • Develop and maintain rigorous clinical and claims-based logic for longitudinal patient analyses, quality measures, utilization metrics, and value-based care performance.
  • Lead data quality, testing, documentation, and code review standards to ensure analytics are accurate, auditable, reproducible, and production-ready.
  • Build and maintain externally facing regulatory and audit reporting (CMS, Medicaid, PACE) in a scalable and defensible manner.
  • Act as a technical leader and mentor within the data team, elevating analytic rigor and best practices without formal people management.

Qualifications

  • 10+ years of hands-on experience as an analyst / leader in healthcare data analytics.
  • Expert level mastery of Epic Clarity and/or medical claims datasets.
  • Advanced SQL skills, including complex joins, window functions, performance optimization, and readable, maintainable query design.
  • Experience designing and building enterprise-grade dashboards with drill-down functionality in Power-BI or another data visualization tool.
  • Deep understanding of healthcare data ontologies including CPT, HCPCS, HCC, ICD-10, NDC, Revenue Codes, Type of Bill, LOINC, UB/HCFA claims, etc.
  • Proven experience developing longitudinal patient analyses using complex clinical logic, while interfacing with subject matter experts like MDs, Pharm-Ds, epidemiologists, etc.
  • Excellent communication skills; able to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders at a high level with all the supporting documentation in your back pocket.
  • Track record of working in cross-functional teams, ideally in a value-based care, PACE, or managed care environment.
  • A team first mentality within our team; a company first mentality when working across Habitat teams.

Requirements

  • Experience developing in a modern data stack using Databricks, Python, and/or Airflow.
  • Experience working in early-stage or rapidly scaling healthcare organizations.
  • Experience with Medicare Advantage, PACE, and/or dual eligible populations.

Benefits

  • This role is eligible for medical/dental/vision insurance.
  • Short and long-term disability.
  • Life insurance.
  • Flexible spending accounts.
  • 401(k) savings.
  • Paid time off.
  • Company-paid holidays.
  • The expected salary range for this position is $146,000 - $170,000 and is bonus-eligible.
