About

We built Midwest Data because healthcare data systems are hard.

Hunter Muse has spent years production data systems for healthcare companies. He saw the same problems repeat: fragmented sources, unreliable pipelines, teams drowning in manual work. Midwest Data exists to solve that, once and for all.

Hunter Muse built this from experience

Hunter spent years at Tuva designing production data systems for healthcare companies. He knows the patterns, the pitfalls, and what actually works at scale.

Team

Senior engineers,
healthcare-native

Our team is made up of senior data engineers with deep healthcare experience. Most of our team is US-based, with some support in Canada. No junior bench. No handoffs. Just experienced operators.

We speak healthcare data

Healthcare data is different. Claims structures, compliance requirements, operational workflows—we've built systems across all of it. That expertise means faster decisions, fewer false starts, and outcomes that actually work.

Clients own what's built

We design systems for your team to operate independently. No vendor lock-in, no dependency.

Built for the long term

We think in years, not quarters. Systems are documented, tested, and designed to scale.

Transparent from the start

We explain our decisions, show our work, and keep you informed every step of the way.

Questions

Common questions about how we work and what we deliver.

Will you replace our team?

No. We support and upskill your existing team. Our goal is to build systems your people can own and operate long-term, not create dependency on us.

What's your tech stack?

We're tool-agnostic. We work with what makes sense for your infrastructure, whether that's Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, or others. The system matters more than the tool.

Are you HIPAA and SOC2 compliant?

Yes. We operate under HIPAA and maintain SOC2 Type II certification. Security and compliance are built into how we work, not added later.

How fast can you move?

We typically move from kickoff to production in weeks, not quarters. We've built enough healthcare data systems to know the patterns. No discovery theater, just work.

Can we see references?

Yes. Our case studies show real problems we've solved and outcomes we've delivered. We're happy to discuss specifics with qualified prospects.
