    Research and development engineer job in Portland, OR

    At Mission Driven Data, we empower transformational leaders of social services agencies by providing access to meaningful data tools and passionate support. We're looking for a detail-oriented, product-focused team member, with experience working in behavioral health or social services, to join our Product Development team in support of the Director of Product Development. This role focuses on the careful, sometimes time-consuming work that helps our products scale and stay reliable. We're seeking someone comfortable writing SQL to build and maintain the structured datasets behind our products - creating clear, consistently named tables and views that behave predictably and are easy to build on. This work matters because those datasets directly support the Power BI dashboards you'll also help build, which are designed to work well for dozens of agencies, not just one. In this role, attention to detail matters more than cleverness. We value people who enjoy following patterns, learning established standards, and producing work that holds up over time. We care deeply about quality and durability, and we expect this role to grow as it encounters new constraints and challenges. In addition, this position will frequently interface directly with clients, helping to onboard our customers into specific products built by Product Development. While Solutions Consultants handle much of our client work, some products require our team's centralization, technical skills, and administrative access to Mission Driven Data's infrastructure. In those cases, this role coordinates setup steps, tracks progress, and follows up to ensure nothing falls through the cracks. Some parts of this job are deeply satisfying; others are less glamorous but essential. This role is a good fit for someone who takes direction well, handles nuance thoughtfully, and manages their own work with a steady hand. About Your Technical Skills You don't need to be an expert in everything listed below, but you should feel comfortable with the core ideas and willing to deepen your skills as you go. * SQL You're comfortable writing and reading SQL to build and maintain structured datasets. You care about correctness, consistency, readability, and clear naming. * Working with structured data You understand relational concepts like unique IDs, relationships, and how tables fit together. You can reason about how data changes ripple through a system. * Data structure & taxonomy awareness You understand how metadata and taxonomies are used to describe and organize entities, and why consistency matters for reporting and usability. * Power BI (or similar tools) You've built dashboards or reports and care about clarity, usability, and visual quality. You're comfortable learning new standards to support many users, not just one. * Very basic comfort with Systems Administration You're comfortable following documentation and performing well-defined tasks carefully in a shared environment. * Documentation & reproducibility You can document what you build so others can understand, maintain, and reuse it. Non-Technical Skills for This Role * Behavioral Health Experience: You've worked in or alongside behavioral health or social services organizations, or you're motivated by building tools that support the people doing that work. * Attention to detail: You notice inconsistencies and care about accuracy and completeness. * Project management and follow-through: You track work, manage multiple threads, and close loops. * Comfort taking direction: You listen carefully, ask clarifying questions, and execute thoughtfully. * Nuance awareness: You handle edge cases and ambiguity without freezing or overcomplicating things. * Clear, kind communication: Especially when following up or nudging busy humans. * Self-management: You organize your work without needing close supervision. * Patience and persistence: You stay steady when progress is slow or work is repetitive. * Collaborative mindset: You work well with people across roles and technical backgrounds. This Role Might Be a Fit If… * You enjoy careful, well-structured work that holds up over time. * You like following standards and making things consistent. * You're comfortable taking direction and executing thoughtfully. * You notice details others miss and care about fixing them. * You can keep track of multiple threads without dropping balls. * You're okay being gently persistent with clients and teammates. * You value reliability, usefulness, and quality over novelty. What "Good" Looks Like After 6 Months By around six months, someone doing well in this role would typically: * Write SQL that fits our standards with minimal guidance. * Build clean, reliable datasets others can trust. * Independently produce solid Power BI dashboards. * Manage client onboarding tasks end to end without things slipping. * Complete basic system administration tasks accurately and confidently. * Stay organized and communicate clearly about progress and risks. * Catch small issues early and handle nuance thoughtfully. * Make small improvements to documentation or processes along the way. About Mission Driven Data Our vision is to be the catalyst for change in the community mental health treatment system, by kindling the curiosity and creativity of emerging leaders and creating a new vocabulary of metrics that truly measure the quality and value of community services Logistics If this sounds like an awesome opportunity that fits what you're looking for, please let us know that you're interested by sending your resume and a brief note explaining your interest in this position to *********************************, using the subject line "Product Development Analyst".
