We are an international IT consulting and software services firm committed to providing. Cutting-edge services and products that satisfy our clients' global needs. Our company was established in 2005, and since then we've expanded our team by including more than 350+ Talented skilled software professionals. Our clients come from the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia, the Middle East, and India, and we create and design IT solutions for them. If you need any more details, you can get them at https://www.beyondkey.com/about.\nRole Summary:\nThis role bridges the gap between core data engineering and practical machine learning applications. Primarily, you will be a data platform engineer responsible for owning core data pipelines, data models, and quality controls that power client analytics and future data products.\nSecondarily, you will drive the production lifecycle of our shopping cart computer-vision feature. You will orchestrate the data workflows that interface with our Machine Learned models to ensure accurate cart classification, while leveraging the FaceFirst ML team for deeper capacity. You will collaborate with BI Analysts, software engineers, and product teams to transform raw data into actionable insights.\nKey Responsibilities\nData Platform, Pipelines, & Quality (Primary Focus)\nPipeline Design & Operation: Design, build, and operate scalable ELT/ETL pipelines that ingest data from IoT/smart-cart telemetry, video events, operational systems, and external partners into our cloud data lake/warehouse.\n Infrastructure Management: Build and maintain robust data infrastructure, including databases (SQL and NoSQL), data warehouses, and data integration solutions.\n Data Modeling: Establish canonical data models and definitions (schemas, event taxonomy, metrics) so teams can trust and reuse the same data across products, BI, and analytics.\nData Quality Assurance: Own data quality end-to-end by implementing validation rules, automated tests, anomaly detection, and monitoring/alerting to prevent and quickly detect regressions.\n Consistency & Governance: Drive data consistency improvements across systems (naming, identifiers, timestamps, joins, deduplication) and document data contract expectations with producing teams.\nRoot Cause Analysis: Troubleshoot pipeline and data issues, perform root-cause analysis, and implement durable fixes that improve reliability and reduce operational load.\n Collaboration & Analytics: Partner with BI Analysts and Product teams to create curated datasets and self-serve analytics foundations (e.g., marts/semantic layer), as well as support internally facing dashboards to communicate system health.\nApplied ML Ownership - Smart Exit Cart-Empty Classifier (Secondary Focus)\nLifecycle Management: Own the production lifecycle for the cart classification capability, including data collection/labeling workflows, evaluation, threshold tuning, and safe release/rollback processes.\nPipeline Implementation: Implement and optimize machine learning pipelines, from feature engineering and model training to deployment and monitoring in production.\n Evaluation & Monitoring: Build and maintain an evaluation harness (offline metrics + repeatable test sets) and ongoing monitoring (accuracy drift, data drift, false positive/negative analysis).\n Cross-Team Collaboration: Collaborate with the FaceFirst ML team to incorporate improvements (model updates, feature changes) while keeping client’s production integration stable.\nIntegration: Work with software engineers to ensure the classifier integrates cleanly into the product workflow with robust telemetry, logging, and operational runbooks.\nSkills & Experience Required:\nWork Experience: 5+ years\nCore Engineering: Strong experience building and operating production ELT/ETL pipelines and data warehouses.\n Programming: Fluency in SQL and Python (or similar) for data transformation, validation, and automation.\n Cloud Platforms: Experience with cloud data platforms (Azure and/or GCP), including object storage, security/access controls, and cost-aware design.\n Tooling: Hands-on experience with orchestration and transformation tooling (e.g., Airflow/Prefect) and batch processing frameworks (e.g., Spark/Databricks).\n Quality Practices: Practical experience implementing data quality practices (tests, monitoring/alerting, lineage/documentation) and improving data consistency across systems.\nOperations: Collaborate with operational teams to identify, diagnose, and remediate in-field system issues.\nBachelor’s degree in computer science, Software Engineering, Information Systems, Mathematics, Statistics, or a related technical field.\nNice to Have\nRule Engines: Working knowledge and understanding of Rule Engines and the integration of those engines to process complex data relationships.\nML & Vision: Experience with computer vision/video analytics concepts or deploying ML models to production.\n Streaming & IoT: Experience with streaming/near real-time data (e.g., Kafka, Pub/Sub), IoT telemetry pipelines, or edge computing.\n MLOps: Familiarity with MLOps practices (model/version tracking, reproducible training, monitoring).","description_format":"text","description_chars":5321,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Artificial
