Why we read it this way (5)
The role blends data/pipeline engineering (ETL, warehouse design) with backend integration work, making it a genuine toss-up between 15-1243 (Database Architects) and 15-1252 (Software Developers). The emphasis on schema design, warehouse optimization, and data-quality ownership tips it toward 15-1243, but a strong backend/software engineering background is explicitly called out as a plus.
CDC (Change Data Capture) appears in the required qualifications section in the context of 'CDC or log shipping from SQL Server', but it is listed alongside REST and webhooks as integration mechanisms rather than as a standalone hard gate on a specific tool — it is captured as preferred to reflect that ambiguity.
EHR integrations (PointClickCare, Homecare Homebase, WellSky, Epic), HL7 v2, FHIR, and CDC from SQL Server are all listed under the Preferred section. PointClickCare is used as the primary skill name with the other EHR platforms captured as alternatives since the posting treats them as interchangeable options.
No compensation range is stated in the posting.
The posting does not explicitly state remote eligibility; the company is headquartered in El Segundo, CA with no remote language, so remote is set to false.
