We will also expand our offering to other domains in health and fitness such as movement, sleep, recovery and stress... management. To help us reach our goals and keep us moving forward, we need a data engineer who knows how to build the pipe end to end--from requirements collection to post-rollout support and QA. Who we're looking for A collaborative self-starter, with a keen attention to detail You know the tools of the trade. You have a solid understanding of data warehousing tools and technology like Snowflake and AWS, as well as ETL tools like FiveTran and dbt. You're experienced with reporting tools such as Tableau, and you can manipulate and analyze data in SQL and Python like a pro. Familiarity with other tools like Heap, Google Analytics, Salesforce Marketing Cloud, and Zendesk are a plus too. You're self-motivated. Once you are confident in what you need to do, you can run with it and don't need a lot of direction. You have strong self-structure and discipline and have worked remotely either currently or in the past so you know the benefits and the challenges. At the same time, you don't silo yourself, and are always eager to learn more and share with the team. You like variety. Not only will you be handling all kinds of systems, apps, and technologies -- like the tools mentioned above--but you'll need to help with execution, QA, and other aspects of our database management. You relish new challenges and get excited by the prospect of wearing multiple hats. You're flexible. You have the ability to prioritize and re-prioritize your work in a changing environment. You understand that things change as new information is made available, and can flip from one project to another at the drop of a hat when your attention is needed. You're a stickler for the details. You are careful, cautious and incredibly meticulous. Some may even call you nitpicky (in an endearing way, of course). You can spot the smallest mistake before it throws a database off course. Nothing slips by the net when you're the goalie. You work well with others. You aren't just here to take orders--you're an expert in your field who knows how to take charge without shutting others out of the process. You can take ideas from multiple sources and synthesize them into a clear course of action--and then execute it with aplomb. You're an exceptional communicator. You know how to get your message across clearly and concisely. You know how to say it, write it and present it in both layman's terms and a bit more formally if needed. You know how to be heard and energize people around you no matter who you are interacting with, and you're quick to respond when someone needs your help. You're adaptable. You're comfortable working with cross-functional teams, and you can switch gears as smoothly as a Formula 1 driver. You may be working on requirements gathering one day, and doing support and exception handling another, and you relish the idea of taking ownership of the entire data pipeline. What you'll be doing Learning the company's data needs. You'll work with people across the company to assess what data we need to gather. That means:
Interviewing stakeholders, the analytics team, and users. From those people, you'll gather requirements for data marts that the marketing, client care, product and finance teams can use to better understand our customers. Optimizing the process. You'll review our existing shaping processes, make it better, and design and develop new processes for integration on future projects. and turning that into action You'll then build the data model structure and support it from end to end. That includes:
Designing the process. You'll develop the ETL processes, leveraging existing APIs and connectors, or work with the tech team to build new ones. Build and document everything. You'll build, test, and fine-tune the entire data warehouse, and create detailed documentation so our team isn't lost when you aren't around. Gather feedback and enter support mode. Your job isn't done once the process is rolled out--you'll also design new QA, security, privacy, and exception handling procedures, not to mention collect a backlog of enhancement requests and plan out the next release while working on other projects. A few important caveats This is a dream job, if you're the right person for it. Must-Have #1:
You must be experienced. You've spent 5
years working in a data engineering role of some sort. You're familiar with some or all of the following:
registration and user behavior data, digital marketing information, customer support systems, and survey responses.

JOB DESCRIPTION AND POSITION REQUIREMENTS:

The Department of Nutritional Sciences at the Pennsylvania State University seeks applications for two tenure-track positions. These positions are open at the Assistant Professor (tenure-track) or Associate Professor (tenure-eligible) rank. These positions will complement the research of existing faculty within the Department and across the University, which includes research related to the prevention of cardiovascular disease; ingestive behavior; mechanisms of obesity; studies of diet, physical activity, and cancer prevention; maternal child health including pregnancy and lactation; research on genetic models of inflammation; epidemiology, and global health nutrition. We are seeking candidates in the area of Precision Nutrition. These hires will be co-funded by Penn State’s Department of Nutritional Sciences http://nutrition.hhd.psu.edu and the Huck Institutes of the Life Sciences https://www.huck.psu.edu/ . The tenure home will be in the Department of Nutritional Sciences. These positions come with a competitive start-up package and salary based on 36-weeks of service annually, which can be supplemented with additional salary up to a total of 48 weeks from external competitive grants and contracts and/or from endowment funds.

Research has indicated that a one-size-fits-all approach may not be effective in disease prevention and management. Precision health aims to incorporate individual characteristics, lifestyle, and environment to optimize health. Precision health is inclusive of precision medicine and precision public health, and in the context of nutrition, has been highlighted as an NIH priority with the creation of the Nutrition for Precision Health initiative under the All of Us program. Biopsychosocial models contribute to the interindividual variation of nutrition interventions—these variations contribute to health inequities. Precision nutrition asserts that these relationships are bidirectional, with complex links to genomic, metabolomic, social, psychological, dietary, and environmental components. We will consider applicants whose research includes animal models and/or human research. Applicants will be expected to maintain a successful research program and to teach in the Department’s undergraduate and graduate programs. Teaching and service expectations will be appropriate to Penn State’s mission as a Land Grant (https://www.aplu.org/about-us/history-of-aplu/what-is-a-land-grant-university/) university.

Qualifications

We are seeking highly motivated individuals with:
• An earned Doctoral Degree in nutrition, physiology, biochemistry, molecular biology, or closely related field (Ph.D., MD, and/or equivalent) is required
• Evidence of original research published in peer-reviewed journals (Assistant & Associate Professor) and potential for (Assistant Professor) or track record (Associate Professor) of extramural funding
• Potential for (Assistant Professor) or proficiency in (Associate Professor) teaching and mentoring students
• Research that is synergistic with core areas of the strategic plans of the Department of Nutritional Sciences, the Huck Institutes of the Life Sciences, the College of Health and Human Development, and Penn State overall, of which Enhancing Health is one of five thematic priorities (http://strategicplan.psu.edu/thematic-priorities/ )

The Department seeks applicants whose professional preparedness, experience, and accomplishments are informed by experiences working with and within groups historically underrepresented in higher education in the United States. Priority will be given to applicants who demonstrate, through prior actions and achievements, intentional and actioned commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Examples of such contributions are research or creative activity focused on empowering underserved populations; teaching, mentorship, and service that increases equitable access; and inclusion in fields where historically excluded populations are underrepresented.

About the Department of Nutritional Sciences

The National Research Council ranked Penn State’s Graduate Program in Nutritional Sciences among the nation’s best. The Department has 26 full-time faculty. Current student enrollments are approximately 250 undergraduate students, 44 Master’s students, and 26 Ph.D. students. The Department provides a supportive, collaborative environment that facilitates and encourages interdisciplinary translational research. Collaborative opportunities abound in the Department of Nutritional Sciences; in other departments in the College of Health and Human Development; as well as in other Penn State Colleges (e.g., Agriculture, Engineering, Medicine, Science, Liberal Arts and Sciences), Centers and Institutes across campus, including but not limited to the Huck Institutes for the Life Sciences, the Social Sciences Research Institute, Penn State Clinical and Translational Institute (CTSI), Penn State Cancer Institute, and Cooperative Extension. Faculty within the department have a high success rate of extramural funding. For more information about the department, visit: http://nutrition.hhd.psu.edu/.

The Department of Nutritional Sciences is located within the College of Health and Human Development (HHD) at University Park. HHD enrolls approximately 4,200 undergraduates and 350 full-time graduate students. The College includes eight academic units and several research centers and service units. For more information about HHD, visit: www.hhdev.psu.edu.

About the Huck Institutes of Life Sciences

The Huck Institutes might best be imagined as a web—or maybe as a series of bridges, built and maintained by dedicated researchers, between various University institutions that would have otherwise been isolated islands. The more these bridges are built up, the better we get at communicating and collaborating across the life sciences, and the better we get at solving problems and having real impacts on science and society.

For this position, the key Huck Institute units and initiatives we would expect a precision nutrition hire to collaborate with groups such as:
• Microbiome Center (with >100 faculty from 10 colleges)
• Metabolomics expertise, with recent investment, instrumentation and faculty expertise across several colleges to handle population-level initiatives on diet, metabolism and health outcomes, not least in disadvantaged populations
• Center for Medical Genomics/Genome Sciences Institute, where we have world-leading faculty in statistics and genomics, including precision genomics initiative as part of University Health Science Council biomedical initiative
• Center for Infectious Disease Dynamics and/or Center for Molecular Immunology and Infectious Diseases, where there is expertise in inflammation and global health

The hires would also contribute to growing faculty expertise in the Intercollege Graduate Degree Program in Neuroscience, Bioinformatics and Genomics, Physiology, or Molecular, Cellular and Integrative Biosciences.

About the University Park Campus

This position is located at the University Park campus of Penn State in State College, Pennsylvania, a picturesque locale in the heart of the Commonwealth known as Happy Valley.
