Responsibilities
- Build Data Pipelines for Prototyping
- Build focused data pipelines that pull from GPS source systems (SAP, MES, LIMS, planning tools, quality systems) and transform raw data into clean, usable datasets for prototypes and applications.
- Use Spark, Python, SQL, and AWS services (Glue, S3) to extract, transform, and load data efficiently.
- Apply Medallion architecture patterns (bronze → silver → gold) to organize data layers - keeping it practical and proportional to the prototyping context.
- Use dbt for modular, testable transformations where appropriate - build reusable models that the team can leverage across projects.
- Prepare curated datasets tailored for AI/ML feature engineering, application consumption, and analytical exploration.
- Develop & Integrate AI/ML Solutions
- Build and deploy machine learning models - predictive, classification, anomaly detection, and optimization models that support GPS use cases.
- Develop and integrate GenAI and LLM-based capabilities - including conversational agents, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and agentic AI workflows.
- Perform feature engineering - design and build feature sets from complex operational data that improve model performance and explainability.
- Work with Databricks for model development, experimentation, and deployment.
- Ensure AI outputs are structured and accessible for consumption by the team's web applications and user-facing tools.
- Collaborate Across the Digital Lab
- Partner with Software Engineers to define data contracts, APIs, and output formats that applications need to consume.
- Work with Systems Analysts to understand business requirements and translate them into data and AI solution approaches.
- Engage with business stakeholders when needed to understand data sources, validate data quality, and confirm that outputs reflect operational reality.
- Coordinate with centralized IT / BI&T teams for access to source systems, data governance considerations, and handoff when solutions graduate to production scale.
- Keep It Practical and Prototype-Ready
- Build pipelines and models that are robust enough to support working prototypes and demos - not over-engineered for enterprise scale.
- Apply sound practices - version control, testing, documentation - proportional to the maturity of each project.
- Know when a pipeline or model is good enough for prototyping and when it needs to be hardened or handed off for production-grade implementation.
- Qualifications / Education
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Computer Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field.
- Experience & Skills
- Required
- 5-7 years of hands-on experience in data engineering and/or applied AI/ML roles.
- Strong proficiency in Python, Spark, and SQL for data pipeline development and data manipulation.
- Experience with AWS cloud services - S3, Glue, Lambda, or equivalent - for building cloud-native data workflows.
- Hands-on experience with dbt for data transformation, testing, and documentation.
- Experience with Databricks for data processing, model development, or both.
- Working knowledge of Medallion architecture patterns (bronze/silver/gold layering).
- Experience building and deploying ML models - including feature engineering, model training,
