Data Migration Engineer - Remote

Overview

At AlfaDocs, we’re on a mission to transform healthcare. Our software platform makes the daily lives of medical practices and patients easier by streamlining practice management and patient relationships. With our all-in-one, cloud-based solution, healthcare professionals can focus more on care and less on administration.

We take pride in our responsibility to deliver high-performance solutions while fostering a collaborative and respectful environment where everyone’s contributions are valued. We’re driven by a shared passion to make a lasting impact on the healthcare industry, creating a space where both our team and our customers thrive.

As part of our customer onboarding process, we help new clients migrate their data from legacy practice management systems into our platform. As our Data Migration Engineer, you will be responsible for these migrations end-to-end, and for dramatically improving the internal tooling that supports this process. You’ll work on a small team and play a key role in scaling our migration pipeline, making it faster, more reliable, and more automated.
