Data Analyst -Remote

Salary Range: $100,000.00 To $120,000.00 Annually Data Analyst Position Title: Data Analyst Department: Technology Reports To: Chief Technology Officer Location: Remote Employment Type: Full-time Travel Requirement: 0–10% About MedZed MedZed is a leader in delivering value-based, technology-enabled social support to high-cost Medicaid members who are unreachable and disconnected from their primary care provider. We combine innovative outreach and care models with technology to find and engage members, connect them to primary care, and improve outcomes. Our intervention yields reduced costs and assists our members in enhancing their quality of life. MedZed is a growth-stage, PE-backed healthcare services company serving high-cost Medicaid recipients through Community Health Navigators. With 330 employees operating across three states, we connect underserved populations to the social and health resources they need. We are scaling rapidly and investing in data and analytics as a core enabler of that growth. Position Overview We are building MedZed’s analytics function and looking for a Data Analyst who will be a core contributor on a lean team — someone who can own and drive the analytics products the business runs on. This is a highly visible, hands-on role: you will build the data sources, construct the dashboards, write the SQL and Python, document your work, train the people who use it, and own the backlog of enhancement requests. You will be a partner with product, operations, clinical, finance, and program leadership to turn their questions into decision-grade analytics. You will operate with autonomy, be held to high standards of rigor and polish, and deliver with fast turnaround. This is not a role for someone who wants narrowly scoped tickets; it is for an exceptionally strong technical analyst who runs toward ownership, accountability, and visibility. Key Responsibilities Build and Own the Analytics Products Design, build, and maintain the curated data sources, dashboards, and reports that drive operational decision-making across our programs. Own each product end to end — from requirements through building, documentation, training, and ongoing enhancement. Write the SQL and Shape the Data Model Develop, optimize, and maintain SQL against our cloud data environment. Partner with data engineering to expose the data you need, and contribute to a sustainable, well-structured analytical layer. Articulate data requirements clearly and build for performance and reuse. Automate Recurring Reporting Build and maintain Python-based reporting pipelines for recurring operational, compliance, and quality deliverables. Validate rigorously — reconcile numbers to source, QA before release, and stand behind the figures you publish. Document, Train, and Maintain Produce clear documentation for the data sources and dashboards you build. Train and enable the people who use them. Maintain a prioritized backlog of enhancement requests and re-prioritize as the business needs shift. Qualifications Education & Experience Bachelor’s degree in quantitative discipline, or a degree plus equivalent real-world experience as a data analyst. 3+ years in data analytics roles, with a demonstrated ability to drive complex work to decision and resolution. Strong SQL skills — you can articulate what you need, build a sustainable model, and optimize performance. Advanced dashboarding/BI skills; Tableau strongly preferred (experience with product-embedded dashboards a plus). Proficiency with Python for data work (pandas and related libraries) and report automation. Strong, audience-aware written and verbal communication, with the ability to work in a self-directed environment on a lean team. Laser focuses on results: getting things done on time with high quality Preferred Healthcare analytics experience, especially Medicaid and California CalAIM; EMR or care management system reporting. Familiarity with dimensional/Kimball data modeling and the bronze/silver/gold (medallion) pattern. Azure (SQL, cloud data services); exposure to Databricks a plus. Familiarity with Salesforce / Health Cloud as a data source. Comfort using AI coding assistants (e.g., Claude Code, Copilot, Cursor) to accelerate development — with the judgment to validate and hone generated output. Customer-facing experience in an analytics role.
