Build the Future of Wellbeing

Do Your Life's Best Work

If modern wellbeing were redesigned from scratch, it wouldn't live in a GP's office or a cluttered supplement aisle. It would be digital-first, beautifully curated, and powered by data that actually helps you feel your best.


That's what we're building at

Healf

--an ecommerce platform at the intersection of personalised health and curated wellbeing. We connect customers with the world's most effective products across

EAT MOVE MIND and SLEEP

, and we're just getting started.


We combine

culture-shaping storytelling

,

cutting-edge health tech

(like our new blood testing platform,

Healf Zone

), and

a best-in-class product experience

to help people build rituals that work.


Backed by investors behind

Soho House, Alo Yoga, Cult Beauty, and Innocent

, we're scaling fast--and redefining how the world shops and lives well.

The Role

We're seeking an experienced and strategic Lead Data Engineer to guide our data platform and infrastructure, accelerating the growth of our health and wellbeing e-commerce platform.

Proven expertise in Snowflake and dbt for large-scale data architecture, modeling, and transformation is ideal. Strong proficiency in SQL (query tuning, optimization, execution plans). Proficiency in Python for scripting, automation, and integration. Solid hands-on experience with AWS data services: S3 (data lake storage), Glue (ETL), Lambda/Step Functions (event-driven orchestration). Experience implementing data observability and reliability frameworks. Demonstrated leadership in growing engineering teams, conducting architecture reviews, and driving coding standards. Excellent ability to collaborate with business stakeholders and communicate technical trade-offs clearly.
