Join a Mission-Driven AI Innovation Team

Are you passionate about building intelligent, scalable solutions at the cutting edge of data automation and Generative AI?

We’re looking for a GenAI Data Automation Engineer to help design and deliver AI-powered data pipelines and automation tools in a modern AWS/Azure hybrid cloud environment. You’ll contribute to projects that impact real-world decision-making, reporting, and analytics for mission-critical platforms.

If you thrive on solving complex data challenges with smart automation—and want to work with emerging GenAI technologies—this role is for you.

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Architect and build automated data pipelines using AWS (S3, Glue, Lambda, EMR, DynamoDB, RDS/SQL Server).

  • Design ETL/ELT workflows across hybrid cloud (AWS & Azure SQL), integrating data from sources like DynamoDB, AWS Connect, and CRM platforms.

  • Develop real-time and batch ingestion pipelines using tools like Apache Spark, Kafka, and Flume into Solr/OpenSearch.

  • Integrate Generative AI frameworks (AWS Bedrock, Amazon Q, Azure OpenAI, LangChain, Hugging Face) to:

    • Automate vector generation, embeddings, and unstructured data transformations.

    • Enhance ETL with LLM-based logic for anomaly detection and NLP-powered transformations.

    • Build natural language query interfaces and copilots for pipeline monitoring.

  • Tune and optimize SQL Server performance: stored procedures, indexing, query plans.

  • Apply DevOps best practices with GitHub, Jenkins, or Azure DevOps for pipelines and model deployments.

  • Implement secure cloud solutions: IAM, RBAC, VPC isolation, KMS encryption, and firewall policies.

  • Work in Agile sprints to deliver high-impact automation and GenAI features.

What You Bring to the Table:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related field.

  • 2+ years of experience in data engineering and automation.

  • Proven hands-on experience with Generative AI/LLM tools, ideally in production.

  • Skills in Python, SQL, Spark, PowerShell, Bash, and cloud CLIs (AWS/Azure).

  • Strong experience with AWS services: S3, RDS, Glue, Lambda, EMR, DynamoDB.

  • Knowledge of tools like Kafka, Flume, Solr, and real-time data ingestion strategies.

  • Comfortable integrating APIs and working with enterprise data platforms.

  • Familiar with CI/CD and Agile tooling: GitHub, JIRA, Jenkins, Azure DevOps.

  • Strong problem-solving skills in SQL tuning, pipeline performance, or AI model ops.

  • Excellent communicator who thrives in collaborative, cross-functional teams.

Why You’ll Love This Role:

  • Work at the intersection of AI and cloud data engineering.

  • Help modernize data workflows for critical analytics and decision support.

  • Be part of a forward-thinking team driving enterprise transformation.

  • Enjoy flexibility with remote work, plus quarterly in-person collaboration.
