# Python & Integrations Engineer - Data Pipelines & Cloud Integrations

> ETHICS CODE · Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic (Hybrid) · Contract · Posted 2026-09-04

**Workplace:** hybrid

**Department:** Engineering / Technology

## Description

**Level:** Mid–Senior (individual contributor with mentoring responsibilities)

About the Role

We're looking for a Python-focused engineer who can independently own the design, build, and reliability of integrations, ETL processes, and data pipelines across a complex, multi-system landscape. You'll write production Python, connect systems through REST and GraphQL APIs, keep data flowing cleanly across cloud services, mentor more junior developers, and act as a technical point of contact across delivery, engineering, and product teams. Experience with clinical-trial technology is a strong plus.

### Your Mission

-   Independently analyze, design, program, unit test, troubleshoot, and debug integrations, digital pipelines, and ETL processes in Python, with a focus on efficiency and reliability.
-   Build and maintain API-based integrations (REST and GraphQL) between internal and third-party systems.
-   Leverage cloud computing and microservices architecture to enable and scale integrations in cloud environments.
-   Understand, troubleshoot, and manage interdependencies across multiple software systems to ensure smooth data flows and integrations.
-   Monitor changes in product software and infrastructure to identify potential impacts on CIS deliverables, proactively addressing dependencies and conflicts.
-   Perform code reviews of work written by other team members, with a focus on integration reliability and data integrity.
-   Manage assigned tasks and follow up on items requiring clarification with the relevant teams.
-   Record and track defects uncovered during test execution, and actively participate in their resolution.
-   Manage multiple projects and tasks effectively, delivering on time while adapting as priorities shift.
-   Mentor, supervise, and provide technical leadership to more junior developers.
-   Stay current on the latest Medidata products, their functionality, and features.
-   Network with key contacts inside the delivery unit and beyond your own area of expertise.
-   Ensure all relevant Medidata SOPs and Work Instructions (WIs) are followed.
-   Complete documentation and procedures for installation and maintenance.

### Your Competencies

-   Strong hands-on Python development for integrations, automation, and data processing (writing, testing, debugging, and maintaining production code).
-   Design and consume APIs (REST and GraphQL), handling authentication, pagination, rate limits, and error handling robustly.
-   Gather business requirements, write specifications and code, and perform unit testing and debugging of applications.
-   Translate business requirements into functional requirements, well-defined user stories, and clear acceptance criteria.
-   Challenge inefficient or counterproductive processes and establish/deploy improved ones; strong change-management and collaboration skills.
-   Work independently on projects while collaborating with others when needed to reach shared goals.
-   Overcome obstacles, troubleshoot, and drive issues to resolution.
-   Identify risks (technical and timeline) to deliverables and raise them for discussion and guidance with senior team members.
-   Work across teams with widely varying skill sets.
-   Perform in-depth, code-level debugging of your own and others' code.
-   Communicate complex technical information to non-technical audiences.
-   Engage confidently with clients, Project Managers, Engineering, and Product teams.
-   Results-driven, data-driven, entrepreneurial, and action-oriented, with strong attention to detail.
-   Occasional weekend work in support of product deployments.

## Requirements

-   Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent, with a minimum of 5 years of related experience.
-   Strong, demonstrable proficiency in Python for integrations, ETL, and automation.
-   Solid experience building and consuming REST APIs; hands-on experience with ETL processes and data pipelines.
-   Excellent verbal/written communication and organizational skills.
-   Proficiency with AWS.
-   Experience with cloud-native monitoring and observability tools (e.g., AWS CloudWatch, Grafana) to assess system reliability.
-   Experience with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions).
-   Familiarity with relational databases such as MS SQL, PostgreSQL, or MySQL.
-   Familiarity with microservices and cloud-native integration patterns.
-   Familiarity with complex system migrations.
-   Familiarity with software development processes.
-   Knowledge of Artificial Intelligence methods and their scope of applicability.

**Preferred**

-   Experience with GraphQL APIs.
-   Experience with clinical-trial software technology.
-   Familiarity with Ruby on Rails or other scripting languages.
-   Experience with PowerShell.
-   Familiarity with mobile app development.
