| Aspect | Ai Data Developer | Data Scientist |
|---|---|---|
| Required Credentials | Bachelor's in CS, Data Science, or related; knowledge of AI frameworks | Bachelor's or higher in CS, Statistics, or related; strong analytical skills |
| Work Environment | Develops AI models, integrates AI solutions into applications | Analyzes data, builds predictive models, interprets data trends |
| Employer & Industry Usage | Tech companies, AI startups, R&D departments | Finance, healthcare, marketing, tech firms |
While both roles involve working with data and AI, Ai Data Developers focus on creating and deploying AI models within applications, whereas Data Scientists analyze data to extract insights and build predictive models. The roles often overlap but differ mainly in their primary focus and application environment.

The OpportunityÂ
We have built a data platform on Microsoft Fabric and Azure. Our analytics team is consuming data, and our AI roadmap depends on clean, structured, trustworthy data to deliver. What we are missing is the technical owner who makes the data actually work.Â
 This is not a hands-off leadership role. The Director of Data Engineering will be a player-coach: leading and growing a team of 2–5 engineers while remaining a hands-on contributor who can architect solutions, write pipelines, and set the technical bar. You will own the Fabric platform end-to-end, connect our source systems into a reliable data foundation, and serve as the linchpin between raw data and every downstream initiative that depends on it.Â
 Why This Role MattersÂ
Every AI project on our roadmap requires clean, well-structured, trustworthy data. The Fabric platform is in place. This role makes it useful. Without strong data engineering leadership, our analytics team is constrained by data quality issues they cannot fix — and our AI initiatives stall before they start.Â
Own the Microsoft Fabric PlatformÂ
Serve as the technical owner of JSSI's Microsoft Fabric environment — architecture, governance, performance, and access controlÂ
Drive the roadmap for the platform including CI/CD enablement, Git integration, and centralized ingestion workspace designÂ
Manage Fabric capacity, right-sizing, backup, and disaster recoveryÂ
Build and Maintain Data PipelinesÂ
Design, build, and operate reliable data pipelines that connect source systems into clean, usable dataÂ
Establish monitoring, alerting, and SLA standards for pipeline reliabilityÂ
Define the Data FoundationÂ
Establish a single source of truth across all systems and acquisitions, ensuring every team is working from the same numbersÂ
Build and maintain enterprise semantic models that serve analytics, reporting, and AI use casesÂ
Partner with the data governance function to implement Microsoft Purview for cataloging, classification, and data privacy standardsÂ
Enable Analytics and AIÂ
Make the analytics team faster by solving data quality and availability issues at the sourceÂ
Build the data foundation that AI initiatives depend on, enabling the organization to move from insight to actionÂ
Develop and support AI data agents to expand analytics delivery across the organizationÂ
Responsible for supporting ML initiatives (not just AI agents)Â
 Lead and Grow the TeamÂ
Manage and mentor a team of 2–5 data engineers, setting technical standards and fostering a high-performance cultureÂ
Partner cross-functionally with analytics, product, and business stakeholders to prioritize and deliverÂ
Represent the data engineering function in leadership discussions and help shape JSSI's broader data strategyÂ
ExperienceÂ
10+ years of experience in data engineering, with a track record of building and scaling data platforms in production environmentsÂ
3+ years in a leadership role managing engineers, with demonstrated ability to develop talent and build team cultureÂ
Experience as a player-coach — comfortable rolling up your sleeves while also setting direction for the teamÂ
 Technical SkillsÂ
Deep expertise with Microsoft Fabric, including Lakehouse and Warehouse architecture, pipelines, and OneLakeÂ
Strong hands-on experience with Azure cloud infrastructure and Azure Data servicesÂ
Proficiency in SQL and Python for data engineering and pipeline developmentÂ
Experience designing and implementing ETL pipelines across complex, multi-source environmentsÂ
Familiarity with CI/CD practices and Git-based deployment workflows for data platformsÂ
Experience with data governance platforms (Microsoft Purview preferred) and semantic layer designÂ
Working knowledge of Power BI and enterprise reporting architecturesÂ
Familiarity with AI/ML data patterns and building data products that support machine learning use casesÂ
 Leadership and CollaborationÂ
Strong communicator who can translate technical complexity into clear language for business stakeholdersÂ
Collaborative partner who works well across analytics, product, and business teamsÂ
High ownership mindset — you treat data as a product and hold yourself accountable for its quality and reliabilityÂ
