About the role
Original posting provided by amazon
As a Data Engineer on the AMPS team, you will work directly with Software Engineering, Business Intelligence, Data Science, and Product teams to continuously improve and build our data infrastructure, data models, tools, and data pipelines. Your work will directly influence organizational insights, customer-facing features, and machine learning models.
To be successful in this role, you should have strong database design skills, comfort with large data sets, and an eagerness to build with GenAI solutions. You should have a passion for data and analytics with the technical skills needed to build for scale and automation.
Key job responsibilities
- Design and implement next-generation data pipelines and business intelligence solutions using AWS services such as Redshift, Kinesis, EMR, Glue, and Lambda
- Build and deliver high-quality data architecture and pipelines to support business analysts, data scientists, and customer reporting needs
- Interface with other technology teams to extract, transform, and load data from a wide variety of sources, creating coherent logical data models that drive physical design
- Continually improve reporting and analysis processes, automating self-service support for customers and ensuring data quality across pipelines
- Participate in code reviews, design discussions, and team planning while mentoring peers on how team data solutions are constructed and operated
A day in the life
You will collaborate with Software Engineers, Product Managers, Data Scientists, and Business Intelligence Engineers to design, plan, and deliver high-priority data initiatives serving internal stakeholders and AWS customers. You will build automated, fault-tolerant, and scalable data solutions using technologies such as Spark, EMR, Python, Redshift, Glue, and S3. You will also evaluate and improve our architecture, tooling, and codebase to maximize performance and scalability. As you deliver projects independently and lead efforts end to end, you will take on increasingly complex scope and grow into broader responsibilities across the team.
