Senior Research Data Engineer (US)

About the role

PointClickCare's Advanced Technology / AI Applied Research team designs, builds, tunes, evaluates, and delivers AI model systems on clinical and operational data to help providers deliver excellent care. The Senior Applied Research Engineer ensures we have data in the right shape to develop and deliver that AI safely, effectively, and significantly more efficiently than today. You will build and own the gold data layer that sits between our silver Lakehouse data and the AI work that depends on it--building it, validating it, documenting it, and extending it as products evolve and new AI needs come into scope. What you build will be a highly leveraged asset, relied on by multiple AI model system creators across the full R&D lifecycle: EDA, experiments, model development, evaluation, and operational sustaining--supporting AI work ranging from classical ML to the latest generative and agentic approaches. This role blends data engineering with applied AI data science. You will sit with AI researchers to understand what they need, and work with data platform, product, clinical, and workflow experts to understand the data, where it comes from, it's transformation from raw to silver, and what it means. This is the first hire in a function expected to grow over time, embedded directly in PCC's team of AI model development experts.
