Job description

Veeva Systems is a mission-driven organization and pioneer in industry cloud, helping life sciences companies bring therapies to patients faster. As one of the fastest-growing SaaS companies in history, we surpassed $2B in revenue in our last fiscal year with extensive growth potential ahead.

At the heart of Veeva are our values: Do the Right Thing, Customer Success, Employee Success, and Speed. We’re not just any public company – we made history in 2021 by becoming a public benefit corporation (PBC), legally bound to balancing the interests of customers, employees, society, and investors.

As a Work Anywhere company, we support your flexibility to work from home or in the office, so you can thrive in your ideal environment.

Join us in transforming the life sciences industry, committed to making a positive impact on its customers, employees, and communities.

The Role

Veeva Link supports the life sciences industry by building connected data applications to improve research and patient outcomes. It helps professionals find the right people, e. g. clinical trials, education programs, or advisory boards. This streamlined access helps to reduce the time-to-market of essential drugs, conduct trials with the most relevant experts in the respective field, and spread information about new treatments to key people in the life science community. You can read more about Veeva Link on our product pages at https://www.veeva.com/products/veeva-link/.

Joining the External Team, working on three sets of products: Link Key Accounts, Link Key People, and Open Data Clinical, you will have the opportunity to design and develop pipelines that are part of our knowledge base. At the same time, you are going to be in charge of designing the architecture of our AWS subscription. The team is closely connected to other internal teams, as well as to the data governance and product teams, giving you a great opportunity to make meaningful contributions impacting the product value chain.

We value end-to-end ownership, rational thinking, and an analytical mindset. You take responsibility for features and innovation using clean system design principles, take part in the architectural enhancement process, and care for the quality of the outcome. Monitoring, metrics, and general observability are part of the feature design process.

What You’ll Do

  • Work on Veeva Link’s next-gen Data Platform
  • Improve our current environment with features, refactoring, and innovation
  • Work with Python on Spark-based data pipelines, using Terraform to manage the IaC
  • Infrastructure design in AWS: we are in control of our own infrastructure
  • Experiment in your domain to improve precision, recall, or cost savings

Requirements

  • Excellent communication skills, used to work in a remote environment
  • More than 5 years of experience
  • Expert skills in Python or Java
  • Experience with Apache Spark
  • Experience writing software in AWS

Nice to Have

  • Experience with Data Lakes, Lakehouses, and Warehouses (e. g. DeltaLake, Redshift)
  • Previously worked in agile environments
  • Experience with expert systems

  • Annual allocations for continuous learning, development & charitable contributions
  • Fitness reimbursement
  • Veeva Work-Anywhere
