SENIOR DATA ENGINEER
The Data Engineer designs, builds, and maintains scalable data pipelines and infrastructure that power
analytics, machine learning, and business intelligence initiatives. Working closely with Data Scientists,
analysts, and business stakeholders, this role ensures that high-quality, reliable data is accessible across
the organization to support pricing optimization, model experimentation, and strategic decision-making.
A key focus of this role is accelerating feature store expansion through robust data modeling, pipeline
development, and feature engineering, while contributing to pricing semantic and ontology frameworks
that drive consistency across the data ecosystem.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and maintain robust real-time and batch data pipelines to ingest, transform, and deliver structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data from multiple sources
- Develop and manage metadata-driven, real-time streaming pipelines and distributed data processing workflows at scale
- Build and expand the feature store through data modeling, pipeline development, feature building, and data transforms that accelerate ML model readiness
- Contribute to the design and build of pricing semantic layers, ontologies, and knowledge graphs to ensure consistent, reusable data definitions across the organization
- Support Data Marketplace development, enabling teams to discover, access, and share data products across the organization
- Develop cognitive search engine capabilities and support Data Syndication to distribute data across internal and external consumers
- Build and expand the feature store through data modeling, pipeline development, feature building, and data transforms
- Build data applications and support writeback capabilities that enable business users to interact with and act on data directly
- Optimize database performance and query efficiency to support large-scale analytics workloads
- Partner with cross-functional teams to understand data needs and translate them into scalable engineering solutions
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field
- 5+ years of experience in data engineering, ETL development, or a related role
- Proficiency in SQL and Python, including Pandas, PySpark, and Python functions
- Experience with cloud data platforms (e.g., Databricks Unity Catalog) and pipeline orchestration tools (e.g. dbt)
- App building skills— experience developing data apps, dashboards, or writeback solutions (e.g., Streamlit, Hex, or similar tools)
- Experience building pricing semantic layers or data ontologies to standardize business definitions across teams
- Demonstrated experience with data modeling, feature engineering, and building transforms for ML feature stores
- Strong understanding of data modeling, warehousing concepts, and relational databases
Preferred Skills
- Experience with data quality frameworks such as Great Expectations and Databricks Delta Sharing
- Working knowledge of Semantic Engineering, flexible data modeling, and ontology design (OWL, knowledge graphs)
- Familiarity with Data Governance frameworks, Master Data Management practices, and Data Migration methodologies
- Experience supporting ML pipelines and working alongside Data Science teams
- Knowledge of DevOps practices including CI/CD and version control (Git)
- Strong communication skills and ability to work across technical and business teams
- Attention to detail and commitment to data accuracy and integrity
