Job description
- Build production data pipelines, feature workflows, and platform services using Python, SQL, Spark, Databricks, Delta Lake, APIs, and cloud tools.
- Create LLM-powered agents and AI workflows that summarize customer signals, generate insights, recommend actions, and reduce manual work.
- Own platform components such as data ingestion, orchestration, semantic layers, tool integrations, access patterns, monitoring, and reliability.
- Combine structured and unstructured data from usage, adoption, support, success, value, account, and operational systems.
- Improve GenAI quality through evaluation, retrieval design, prompt and tool design, feedback loops, and production monitoring.
- Strengthen data quality, lineage, alerting, access control, governance, and operational support.
- Partner with product, engineering, data science, business operations, and customer-facing teams to turn priority problems into working systems.
- Apply strong engineering practices through Git, code review, CI/CD, Databricks Repos, documentation, and reproducible development.
A few questions this role will help answer: Which customer signals matter most? Where can AI remove repetitive work? How should agents connect to trusted data? What platform capability would help multiple teams move faster?
