Description
Engage with business and analytics teams to deeply understand data needs and translate requirements into robust, scalable engineering solutions that directly impact Operations decisions
Design and implement end-to-end data pipelines and architectures from ingestion and transformation to delivery across batch and real-time streaming workloads
Build and maintain high-quality data models (dimensional, relational, or knowledge graph-based) using modern transformation frameworks such as dbt, powering analytics and AIML use cases at scale
Architect and operate data workflows using orchestration tools (e.g., Apache Airflow, etc) with built-in monitoring, alerting, and SLA management
Implement data observability, lineage tracking, and validation frameworks to uphold data integrity and trustworthiness across the platform
Collaborate with Data Scientists, ML Engineers, Software Engineers and Analysts to operationalize models and ensure data infrastructure supports production AIML workflows
Partner with infrastructure and platform teams to manage cloud-native data environments (Snowflake, Spark, Delta Lake / Apache Iceberg) with a focus on performance, cost efficiency, and scalability
Leverage AI-assisted development tools (e.g., GitHub, Claude) and LLM-powered agents to accelerate pipeline authoring, code review, documentation, and transformation logic generation from natural language specifications
Apply DataOps principles including CI/CD pipelines, version control, automated testing, and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) to deliver reliable, production-grade data products
Champion a data product mindset, enabling self-serve analytics and reducing bottlenecks for downstream consumers
Tune query performance, partitioning strategies, and storage optimization for data at scale in cloud warehouses and lakehouses
Develop and maintain clear technical documentation including data dictionaries, lineage diagrams, and architecture decision records
Present data infrastructure capabilities, health metrics, and architectural recommendations to senior leadership in clear, non-technical terms
Research and evaluate emerging data engineering technologies including streaming architectures, GenAI-powered data tooling, and next-generation warehousing to expand the team's capabilities and accelerate innovation
Minimum Qualifications
MS in Computer Science, Data Engineering, Statistics, Applied Math, Data Science, Operations Research or a related field and 8+ years of industry experience OR BS in related field with 10+ years hands-on industry experience
Domain expertise in supply chain, operations management, logistics, planning & forecasting, production integration, channel management
Demonstrated expertise building and operating large-scale ETL/ELT pipelines using Python, SQL, and modern frameworks (dbt, Spark, Kafka/Flink for streaming)
Proficiency with cloud data platforms (e.g. Snowflake) and open table formats (Delta Lake, Apache Iceberg)
Strong command of advanced SQL for complex data modeling, query optimization, and analytics engineering
Experience with workflow orchestration tools (Apache Airflow or equivalent) and building production-grade, monitored pipelines
Hands-on experience implementing data quality frameworks, observability tooling, and data lineage tracking in production environments
Experienced with implementation and productionalization of GenAI and Agentic AI tooling including LLM-assisted code generation, MCP servers, and AI-powered data pipeline automation
Experience with data visualization and self-service analytics platforms (e.g., Tableau, Streamlit, ThoughtSpot) and the ability to build light front-end data products
Track record of staying current with industry best practices, rapidly adopting emerging technologies (e.g., vector databases, RAG pipelines, AI-native data tools), and building functional prototypes to validate concepts
Preferred Qualifications
Ability to work well in a fast-paced, iterative environment and deliver projects under timeline pressures
Champion a culture of experimentation and continuous learning, bringing innovative and strategic thinking to reporting, business analytics, and AI-powered automation
Exceptional ability to communicate complex data architecture decisions clearly to both technical peers and non-technical senior stakeholders
Strong interpersonal and collaboration skills to partner effectively across functions, share knowledge, and integrate diverse feedback
Self-sufficient with an ability to thrive in an environment of autonomy amidst ambiguity, with a high bias for action and meticulous attention to data integrity
