YOUR TEAM

Nuna’s product offerings enable delivery of value-based care contracts, at scale across the United States.

You’ll need to be able to look at a reporting dashboard or mock and back into the facts and dimensions that we’d need to build to power it. From the other end, you need to work with actuaries and analysts, understand the domain and context of the metrics being produced, and build and populate schemas that can flexibly power our platform.

Own the design and evolution of our data models

Improve performance, usability, and total cost to run our systems

Drive adoption and trust of Nuna’s data and analytics among our users
