Company Overview:
Blink Health is the fastest growing healthcare technology company that builds products to make prescriptions accessible and affordable to everybody. Our two primary products – BlinkRx and Quick Save – remove traditional roadblocks within the current prescription supply chain, resulting in better access to critical medications and improved health outcomes for patients.
BlinkRx is the world’s first pharma-to-patient cloud that offers a digital concierge service for patients who are prescribed branded medications. Patients benefit from transparent low prices, free home delivery, and world-class support on this first-of-its-kind centralized platform. With BlinkRx, never again will a patient show up at the pharmacy only to discover that they can’t afford their medication, their doctor needs to fill out a form for them, or the pharmacy doesn’t have the medication in stock.
We are a highly collaborative team of builders and operators who invent new ways of working in an industry that historically has resisted innovation. Join us!
We are seeking a Director of Data Platform & Engineering to lead the evolution of Blink’s real-time and batch data platform, built on AWS and Databricks. This role owns the strategy, execution, and people leadership for the data platform and engineering team, managing a team of Data Engineers and Data Platform Engineers.
As a Director, you will set the long-term vision and day-to-day management of the data platform and how data is ingested, processed, stored, and modeled, aligned with business objectives. This is a high visibility role deriving trusted metrics, reports and analytics that power decisioning systems, operational workflows and data products for internal and external stakeholders. You will balance hands-on technical judgment with organizational leadership—building high-performing teams, scaling platform capabilities, and ensuring the platform remains reliable, cost-effective, and aligned with business priorities.
This is a highly cross-functional role, partnering closely with Product, Engineering, Infrastructure Data, and Leadership to simplify our data ecosystem, retire legacy patterns, and establish scalable, lakehouse-first foundations for real-time analytics and decisioning.
