The posting

The Company

Dexcom Corporation (NASDAQ DXCM) is a pioneer and global leader in continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). Dexcom began as a small company with a big dream: To forever change how diabetes is managed. To unlock information and insights that drive better health outcomes. Here we are 25 years later, having pioneered an industry. And we're just getting started. We are broadening our vision beyond diabetes to empower people to take control of health. That means personalized, actionable insights aimed at solving important health challenges. To continue what we've started: Improving human health.

We are driven by thousands of ambitious, passionate people worldwide who are willing to fight like warriors to earn the trust of our customers by listening, serving with integrity, thinking big, and being dependable. We've already changed millions of lives and we're ready to change millions more. Our future ambition is to become a leading consumer health technology company while continuing to develop solutions for serious health conditions. We'll get there by constantly reinventing unique biosensing-technology experiences. Though we've come a long way from our small company days, our dreams are bigger than ever. The opportunity to improve health on a global scale stands before us.

Meet the team:

As part of the Commercial Data Science & Revenue Operations team, you will join a data engineering group responsible for building and operating Dexcom’s commercial data platform on AWS. As a Staff Data Engineer, you will design and build data services that ingest from 12+ vendor sources, orchestrate transformation pipelines, and deliver analytics-ready datasets to data scientists, analysts, and 300+ field representatives. You will own AWS-native development workflows using Lambda, Glue, CDK, Step Functions, and Redshift, with a focus on reliability, automation, and scalable infrastructure. The ideal candidate will partner with data scientists and business stakeholders to build the platform that powers commercial analytics and AI/ML initiatives.

Where you come in:

  • Design and build data pipelines that ingest, transform, and deliver vendor data (SFTP, API, file-based sources) into S3 and Redshift, with validation checks and automated error handling at each stage.
  • Own AWS-native development workflows leveraging Lambda, Glue, CDK, and Step Functions to create scalable, cost-aware data services that integrate cleanly with enterprise platforms and reduce manual operational overhead.
  • Implement data quality assertion frameworks that validate completeness, freshness, and accuracy at pipeline boundaries before data reaches downstream consumers — data scientists, analysts, and commercial teams.
  • Build alerting systems and reliability playbooks that enable the team to detect and respond to data platform issues before they impact downstream consumers, shortening mean time to detect/resolve.
  • Model and evolve the data warehouse schema, designing dimensional models and orchestrating multi-source feeds into a unified analytical layer with documented lineage and managed schema evolution.
  • Partner with Privacy, Security, and IT on data governance requirements, translating policy requirements into technical implementations that keep the platform compliant without slowing engineering velocity.
  • Set technical direction for your area and mentor team members through code reviews, pairing sessions, and documentation of reusable patterns and architectural decisions.

What makes you successful:

  • Cloud: Hands-on proficiency with AWS-native architectures (Lambda, Glue, S3, Redshift, Step Functions, CDK) with cost optimization awareness and ability to make build-vs-buy trade-off recommendations. Active AWS certification (Solutions Architect - Associate, Data Engineer - Associate, or equivalent) preferred.
  • Data Platform: Experience designing dimensional models and managing schema evolution in a growing data platform serving multiple stakeholder groups, with strong SQL skills including complex query optimization and debugging.
  • Engineering: Proficiency in Python development in cloud environments, including CI/CD pipeline construction with GitHub Actions, Infrastructure as Code with AWS CDK, and common libraries for data processing and API integration.
  • Operational Excellence: Track record building observability infrastructure (logging, metrics, alerting) for data-intensive applications, with experience writing runbooks and incident response procedures.
  • Industry: Familiarity with healthcare data compliance requirements (HIPAA, data use agreements, vendor data handling) or experience in similarly regulated, quality-driven settings.
  • Communication: Track record partnering with business leaders (director/VP level) to translate data capabilities into actionable strategies, with the ability to write executive-ready summaries.
  • Leadership: Experience elevating team capabilities through code reviews, documentation, and knowledge sharing, with a track record of improving team standards and onboarding practices.

What you’ll get:

  • A front row seat to life changing CGM technology. Learn about our brave #dexcomwarriors community.
  • A full and comprehensive benefits program.
  • Growth opportunities on a global scale.
  • Access to career development through in-house learning programs and/or qualified tuition reimbursement.
  • An exciting and innovative, industry-leading organization committed to our employees, customers, and the communities we serve.

Travel Required:

  • 5-15%

Experience and Education Requirements:

  • Typically requires a Bachelors degree in a technical discipline, and a minimum of 8-12 years related experience or Master’s degree and 5-7 years equivalent industry experience or a PhD and 2-4 years of experience.

Flex Workplace: Your primary location will be a home office. You will not have an assigned workstation and will work with your manager to determine office visit needs. You must live within commuting distance of your assigned Dexcom site (typically 75 miles/120km).

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
