Role Summary

As a Senior Data Lead Engineer, you will lead the evolution of cloud-based data, AI, and BI platforms, owning the data lakehouse architecture and enabling high-impact analytics and AI use cases in a regulated, large-scale environment.

What You’ll Actually Do

  • Own and evolve the data & AI roadmap ensuring scalability, security, and cost efficiency.
  • Design and maintain the enterprise lakehouse architecture.
  • Deliver high-quality, trusted datasets for analytics, BI, and AI use cases.
  • Act as a technical leader and mentor within the data organization.

Must-Have Requirements (Real Essentials)

These are the non-negotiables—everything else is a plus.

Core Experience

  • 5+ years in Data Engineering / Data Platforms / Advanced Analytics (enterprise or regulated environments).
  • Proven experience designing and owning cloud data platforms and lakehouse architectures (preferably AWS).
  • Hands-on experience with Databricks or EMR (Spark) for large-scale data processing.
  • Strong background building data ingestion & ETL pipelines, including CDC and event-driven architectures.

  • Experience with hybrid architectures (on‑prem + cloud) and enterprise data integration.

Data as a Product

  • Experience working with business and BI teams to define KPIs and deliver consumable datasets.
  • Ability to design well-modeled datasets and semantic layers optimized for analytics and reporting.
  • Familiarity with data mesh principles (domain ownership, data-as-a-product mindset).

Leadership

  • Proven ability to lead technically, mentor engineers, and influence stakeholders without direct authority.
  • Strong communication skills with both technical and non-technical audiences.

Nice to Have (We Won’t Filter You Out for This)

  • AWS or Databricks certifications.
  • Experience with ML workflows (feature engineering, training, deployment, monitoring).
  • Exposure to LLMs (RAG, fine-tuning, prompt engineering, guardrails).
