The AI/ML Data Architecture, Engineering and Enablement team is seeking a Senior Data Engineer to help create effective solutions for our data scientists ranging from experimentation to monitoring. In this role, you will focus on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) services and frameworks, contributing to the design, build, and operation of reusable data capabilities that power machine learning and AI at enterprise scale. The ideal candidate is passionate about standardized frameworks, self-service by subject matter experts, and governance-by-design, enabling secure, reliable, and compliant data solutions that facilitate the generation of new intelligence and operating efficiencies. In this role, you will: + Develop scalable, secure data pipelines from on-premise systems of record to Google Cloud Platform services (BigQuery, BigTable, Dataflow, Dataproc, Pub/Sub, Cloud Storage, Composer). + Leverage and extend capability roadmaps for reusable frameworks and tooling (ingestion, transformation, quality, orchestration) actively being developed by the larger organization. + Enable self-service data consumption and governance by standardizing patterns, templates, and sandbox capabilities rather than one-off pipelines. + Support use cases for training, validation and monitoring leveraging BigQuery, Dataflow/Apache Beam, Dataproc/Spark, Pub/Sub, and Cloud Storage. + Create standardized feature transformation pipelines and a common feature store with strong lineage, dictionary and high availability for models. + Ensure appropriate cost, performance, and reliability of GCP data workloads (partitioning, clustering, storage classes, autoscaling strategies). + Develop transformation libraries in Python/SQL/Beam (e.g., common SCD patterns, data quality checks, masking/tokenization routines). + Provide orchestration capabilities via Cloud Composer or Cloud Workflows with reusable DAGs/templates and CI/CD integration. + Implement robust data modeling (dimensional, data vault, or canonical models) and semantic layer implementations with BigQuery or similar tools. + Enforce data quality, lineage, and observability using standardized metrics, validation rules, and monitoring dashboards. + Partner with data scientists and domain solution teams to migrate existing models onto GCP capabilities. + Document patterns, runbooks, and best practices, and provide enablement through workshops and code examples., Employees support our focus on building strong customer relationships balanced with a strong risk mitigating and compliance-driven culture which firmly establishes those disciplines as critical to the success of our customers and company. They are accountable for execution of all applicable risk programs (Credit, Market, Financial Crimes, Operational, Regulatory Compliance), which includes effectively following and adhering to applicable Wells Fargo policies and procedures, appropriately fulfilling risk and compliance obligations, timely and effective escalation and remediation of issues, and making sound risk decisions. There is emphasis on proactive monitoring, governance, risk identification and escalation, as well as making sound risk decisions commensurate with the business unit's risk appetite and all risk and compliance program requirements. ## Related Videos - [From Messy Queries to Scalable Systems - How Data Engineering actually works](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100203-from-messy-queries-to-scalable-systems-how-data-engineering-actually-works) - [TikTok's Privacy Innovation](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1036-tiktok-s-privacy-innovation) - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [Data Science in Retail](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/586-data-science-in-retail) - [Enjoying SQL data pipelines with dbt](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/823-enjoying-sql-data-pipelines-with-dbt) - [Explainable machine learning explained](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/589-explainable-machine-learning-explained) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Data Engineer Salary UK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/253-data-engineer-salary-uk) - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [Got AI ideas but no money?
