We are redefining how individuals understand, measure, and improve their health by moving beyond the limitations of traditional care and enabling comprehensive, continuous insight into human biology. Function has been recognized as one ofFast Company’s Most Innovative Companies of 2024, and is venture-backed by Redpoint and other leading venture firms. Over half a million members have joined Function to take control of their health.\nThrough comprehensive lab testing, MRI and CT imaging, longitudinal data, and guidance from AI and clinical teams, Function gives members a complete and continuous view of their health - and the clarity to act on it. Through acquisitions across imaging, mobile phlebotomy, and supplement tracking and optimization, Function is building an integrated health platform that spans the full path from testing to health clarity to daily action.\nFunction recently announced a $298M Series B and is entering its next chapter of growth. As we scale, the quality and durability of our People systems, data, and insights will directly shape our ability to attract, retain, and support exceptional talent.\nWe are growing our team and seeking out world-class talent that deeply believes in our mission to positively impact global health, has a relentless bias toward action, and a growth mindset. Function fosters a collaborative and dynamic environment where every day we build the future.\nRole\nFunction Health is building the most comprehensive picture of human health ever assembled and making sense of that data is core to our mission. We're looking for a Staff Data Architect to own the semantic layer that sits at the heart of our data platform: the trusted, well-modeled foundation that powers dashboards, self-serve analytics, and increasingly, AI-driven data agents.\nThis isn't a greenfield \"figure out what to build\" role. We have a platform. Now we need someone to make it exceptional, clean models, a well-governed metrics layer, and the architecture to let AI query our data reliably and accurately. You'll collaborate closely with data scientists, product engineers, and business leaders to ensure that when anyone (or anything) asks a question about our data, they get the right answer.\nThis is a fully remote role. Function Health is a distributed team, we hire across the US.\nKey Responsibilities\nOwn the semantic layer: Design and maintain the metrics, dimensions, and data models that serve as the single source of truth across the business - built to be queried by humans and AI alike.\nArchitect for AI-readiness: Structure our Databricks and GCP-based data platform so it can reliably power AI-driven analytics agents - clean schemas in Unity Catalog, consistent naming conventions, and strong data contracts.\nDrive data quality end-to-end: Build observability, testing, and alerting into pipelines so we catch problems before stakeholders do.\nEnable self-serve analytics: Partner with product, clinical, and business teams to deliver tooling and dashboards that let them answer their own questions without filing tickets.\nSet the standard: Establish and enforce data modeling conventions, documentation practices, and code review norms across the data org.\nCollaborate cross-functionally: Translate ambiguous business questions into data solutions; work with product engineering to improve event logging and measurement coverage.\nQualifications/Skills\n8+ years of analytics engineering, data engineering, or data architecture experience, with clear progression to staff-level scope and impact.\nDeep SQL expertise and strong Python skills.\nStrong data modeling fundamentals - you know what clean, extensible, well-documented models look like and can build and enforce that standard regardless of tooling. Experience with dbt is a plus.\nExperience with modern data stack tools: Databricks, Snowflake or BigQuery, Airflow or similar orchestration, Looker/Tableau or equivalent BI tools.\nTrack record of building resilient, monitored, production-grade data systems - not just pipelines that work, but ones that stay working.\nStrong communicator who can make technical tradeoffs legible to non-technical stakeholders.\nNice-to-Have Skills and Experiences\nWhile the core competencies are essential, the following qualifications will distinguish exceptional candidates:\nExperience with health tech or regulated data environments (HIPAA, PHI/PII handling).\nFamiliarity with Databricks Unity Catalog, Delta Lake, or Spark.\nExperience building or integrating with AI/LLM-powered analytics tools or data agents.\nGCP experience.\nTo be a strong fit, you embody our Core Values\nRuthless Prioritization:We don’t let perfect get in the way of progress.\nWe move quickly to drive value, not perfection.\nWe prioritize what drives impact.\nWe never compromise on standards of excellence.\n\nMember-First, Always:We design and deliver like we’re caring for someone we love.\nWe create calendar, actionable, human experience.\nWe prioritize responsiveness, peace of mind, and outcomes.\nWe empower members with truth, clarity, and care.\n\nOne Team, Moving Fast:We are aligned in purpose, prioritization, and speed.\nWe gather diverse perspectives to make informed decisions.\nWe clear paths for each other and move fast together.\nWe communicate clearly and respectfully, rallying around shared goals.\n\nRadical Ownership, Relentless Execution:We don’t just ship- we own outcomes and drive results.\nWe act with urgency and precision\nWe anticipate, initiate, and follow through.\nWe meet challenges with grit and pragmatism.\nWe embrace new tech to deliver better outcomes.\n\nMission Over Ego:We are ruthlessly aligned to our mission- and leave ego at the door.\nWe disagree and commit.\nWe don't tolerate politics or withholding information.\nWe operate with honesty, transparency, and respect.\n\nSustained Integrity in Every Detail:We earn trust by obsessing over accuracy, quality, and clarity in everything we do.\nWe prioritize clinical precision- data must be right.\nWe sweat the details because outcomes depend on them.\n\nWhy You'll Love Working With Us\nWe value our team at Function and offer a competitive salary and benefits package, flexible working hours, and a dynamic work environment where creativity and innovation are encouraged. If you are a highly motivated and experienced individual who is passionate about using technology to improve people’s lives, we would love to hear from you.\nAt Function, we celebrate diversity and are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workforce.
