The thesis of the engagement consultant career track is that you’re not just building an analytics ecosystem, your expertise is also in being a key part of solution ideation and business impact enablement. As the Principal Analytics Engagement Consultant you write and publish PPL’s analytics standards for data modeling, the semantic layer, metric definitions, statistical method, documentation, and reproducibility, and those standards bind every team producing analytics. You co-author the enterprise analytics strategy with the VP of Analytics and hold the technical roadmap for the semantic and governance layer. You also hold the entire team to a high standard of execution on systems level thinking and solutioning.
When a deliverable, a figure, or a claim is not supported by the evidence, you can stop it, and you are expected to. You are the deciding technical voice on leveling and hiring for the Analytics Engagement Consultant team.
You lead PPL’s most consequential engagements: the ones with cross-functional executive sponsorship, regulatory exposure, or material P&L impact. You choose which of these you take on and you own the outcome. You work with PPL Data Architects to ensure the semantic layer, the canonical data models, and the metric definitions meet the minimum quality and rigor expected of the regulatory environment in which PPL operates.
You sit with the executive team as a peer. You shape which questions get asked, you reframe the ones that are wrong, and when the evidence disagrees with the room, you use your influence to help change the decision. You defend methodology under regulatory and audit scrutiny, and over time you make PPL known in the Medicaid market as a partner with deep integrity and analytical rigor.
You are the quality gate for every analytics team member below you. You review and approve their work, and you develop promising talent toward Principal-level judgment: which method, how much rigor, when to push back, when to stop. You own the evolution of the function’s methodology, tooling standards, and operating model with the VP. You set the culture of the craft, which at PPL means intellectual honesty, partnership with the business, and the willingness to raise your hand when the data does not support an assertion.
You stay in the code. When the hardest model needs building, you build it, and your production dbt, SQL, and Python work is the reference implementation others learn from.
We strongly prefer healthcare, Medicaid, or another regulated industry experience, particularly claims, eligibility, payroll, finance, or program integrity. Consulting partner-track experience (MBB, Big Four advanced analytics) or principal-level analytics work at a mature technology company is a strong differentiator. A standout candidate has experience standing up or substantially evolving a semantic or governance layer at enterprise scale.

PPL is the leading service provider for self-directed care programs. We enable members of Medicaid and other government-funded programs to choose their care providers and get care at home. We work with 18 states in 50 programs providing services to support more than 700,000 participant and caregiver relationships.
PPL is an essential element of the program administration. We educate Medicaid members about their self-direction options, enroll them in the program, and get their providers enrolled. We then enable them with our proprietary technology to track their care time and get their providers paid. In simple terms, we facilitate the program’s key administrative and financial processes.
We're here to ensure self-directed care is more than an option—it's a practical, everyday choice that’s simply better.
