Job Summary:
The Data Engineer designs, builds, and supports data pipelines, transformations, and data products that power enterprise reporting, analytics, and AI workloads. The Data Engineer works closely with the AI & Automation Engineers on shared pipelines, integrations, and orchestration, and provides engineering input and collaboration to the Manager, Digital Intelligence, who owns overall data architecture, modeling standards, and platform direction. The role partners with the Data Governance Committee and business data owners to enforce data quality at ingestion and to keep data accurate, secure, and accessible across the organization.
Essential Job Duties and Responsibilities: Build, maintain, and operate ELT/ETL pipelines between business systems. Develop standardized, reusable data products and curated datasets that replace manually built reports and enable consistent, governed enterprise reporting and analytics. Implement data validation, quality checks, error handling, and reconciliation at ingestion in alignment with Data Governance Committee standards, enforcing data quality at the pipeline rather than in downstream reports. Implement data modeling practices, including dimensional, normalized, and lake house patterns, to structure data for analytics, reporting, and AI workloads. Establish and maintain source control practices for data engineering deliverables Monitor and optimize data platform workloads and data pipelines for reliability, performance, and cost, including warehouse sizing, query tuning, usage patterns, failure modes, and unintended outcomes. Implement and support data ingestion and integration standards including naming conventions, required metadata, refresh cadence, lineage tracking, and audit-ready documentation. Apply security, access controls, and data classification to protect sensitive or regulated data in accordance with internal and regulatory requirements. Partner with business data owners and stewards to translate KPI definitions, business processes, and reporting requirements into reliable, documented datasets and data products. Collaborate closely with the AI & Automation Engineers to align data pipelines, integrations, and orchestration patterns so that data products support automation and AI use cases across corporate, IT, and service provider domains. Execute data transformation and conversion tasks to support operational, analytical, and integration requirements. Provide engineering input and recommendations to the Manager, Digital Intelligence on data architecture, modeling standards, platform direction, and governance approach, and translate those decisions into working pipelines and data products. Provide Tier 2/3 escalation support for data pipeline and data quality issues, focusing on complex problem resolution, root cause analysis, and long-term remediation.
