Position Details:

Client:	Texas Health and Human Services Commission
Job Title:	Data Engineer
Job ID:	Solicitation Reference #5371ITC821
Location:	Austin, Tx 78751
Duration:	6+ months

 

Job Description:

The Department of Information Resources (DIR) requires the services of one (1) Cloud Data Engineer hereafter referred to as Worker, who meets the general qualification of Systems Analyst 3, Emerging Technologies, and the specifications outlined in this document for Health and Human Services Commission.     

 

As the State of Texas rushes to address the many impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, it has become critical to rely on the Department of State Health Services (DSHS) to provide reliable, up to the minute data regarding the current state of infection in the state.  As DSHS works to provide this critical data to inform decision makers, health care administrators and citizens, the agency is experiencing serious limitations in the ability to efficiently and reliably provide the data due to a legacy of disparate systems and data that currently resides in numerous locations and databases across the agency. Sharing this vital data across all of these systems is inherently difficult, time-consuming, and requires resource intensive manual and inefficient processes. These cumbersome manual processes have a severe impact on Texas’ ability to respond effectively to the COVID-19 pandemic and prevent the loss of life.

 

The Infectious Disease Data Integration (IDDI) project is intended to improve the efficiency of current processes. An integrated approach to data services will aid in providing the most current data to inform decision makers about the health and readiness statuses of jurisdictions across the state.

 

The Infectious Disease Data Integration project aims to create a data analytics platform plus data governance with Informatica Axon. The IDDI platform will facilitate the sharing, reporting, and analytics of the data collected from the COVID-19 contact tracing in the Texas Health Trace (THT) system, the COVID-19 case management data contained in the National Electronic Disease Surveillance System (NEDSS), and COVID-19 immunization tracking in the ImmTrac system.

 

All work products resulting from the project shall be considered “works made for hire” and are the property of the HHSC. HHSC may include pre-selection requirements that potential Vendors (and their Workers) submit to and satisfy criminal background checks as authorized by the Texas law. HHSC will pay no fees for interviews or discussions, which occur during the process of selecting a Worker(s).

 

HHSC IT is currently implementing a Analytics Platform with Informatica PowerCenter, Snowflake and AWS technologies as well as Informatica Axon Data Governance with a goal to accomplish improved COVID-19 reporting.

• Assist DSHS program area use of the IDDI Platform to its fullest potential
• Assist with analytics use with off the shelf reporting tools like SAS, SPSS, Tableau, ARCgis
• Assist with publishing as needed to Tableau and/or ARCgis servers or other web platforms
• Data modeling, data profiling, data quality, data validation, data curation and data transformation
