About the role

As a Data & Analytics Engineer at Forus, you will build the data foundation that powers how we operate, measure, and grow. You will design and maintain our core data models, pipelines, and reporting infrastructure, ensuring the right people have access to clean, trustworthy, decision-grade data. This is a cross-functional, impact-heavy role in which you will work closely with product, ops, growth, and leadership to build the systems that enable better, faster decisions across the company.

What they're looking for

  • 3–6 years of experience in data engineering, analytics engineering, or a technical data analyst role with production ownership
  • Expert-level SQL and comfort working in a code-first environment (versioning, testing, documentation)
  • Experience designing data models that balance usability, performance, and long-term maintainability
  • Familiarity with the modern data stack — dbt, Fivetran, Airflow, GCP/AWS/Snowflake, Metabase (or equivalents)
  • Strong written and verbal communication that allows you to be an effective participant in both internal debates and external relationships
  • Track record of moving quickly, finding shortcuts, and going to unreasonable lengths to deliver on goals
More about this role

Forus is building an AI-powered network that connects doctors, pharmacies, payers, and biopharma to accelerate new science to patients.

Our platform automates the complexity between a doctor prescribing a medicine and a patient starting treatment, including insurance coverage, financial assistance, and supply chain navigation. We provide this support free to doctors and patients, helping them get life-changing medicine faster, cheaper, and easier. The resulting network enables biopharma companies to design better research, launch new drugs more effectively, and invest in harder-to-treat conditions.

Forus has exceptional product-market fit and is growing rapidly through organic adoption:

Accelerating scale: We already support patients across more than 85% of ZIP codes and partner with 9 of top 15 largest biopharma companies in the world.

AI-native, durable model: Our business becomes stronger as AI improves, as every new doctor, patient, and partner makes the network more valuable.

Backing to build for the long term: We raised $300M+ from leading investors to build an exceptional team and unlock the full scale of the opportunity.

Our number one priority is scaling to market demand....
