Your role will include creating and maintaining data pipelines that transform and load data from various products and managing the AWS infrastructure for our machine learning platform. Additionally, you will work with engineers, product managers, and data scientists to design and implement robust and scalable data services that support Epic's mission while ensuring our user’s privacy.

In this role, you will

  • Interact with product teams to understand how our safety systems interact with their data systems.
  • Design and implement an automated end-to-end ETL process, including data anonymization, to prepare data for machine learning and ad hoc analysis.
  • Manage and scale the tools and technologies we use to label data running on AWS.
  • Devise database structure and technology for storing and efficiently accessing large data sets (millions of records) of different types (text, images, videos, etc.).
  • Use and implement data extraction APIs.
  • Write and invoke custom SQL procedures.
  • Support data versioning strategies using automated tools.

What we're looking for

  • Strong analytical background: BSc or MSc in Computer Science/Software Engineering or related subject - candidates without a degree are welcome as long as they have extensive hands-on experience.
  • Experience in ETL technical design, automated data quality testing, QA and documentation, data warehousing, and data modeling.
  • Experience with Python for interaction with Web Services (e.g., Rest and Postman).
  • Experience with using and developing data APIs.
  • Experience using AWS, Snowflake, or other comparable large-scale analytics platforms.
  • Experience monitoring and managing databases (we use Elasticsearch / MongoDB / PostgreSQL).
  • Experience with SQL.
  • Experience with data versioning tools.
  • Experience developing and maintaining data infrastructure for ETL pipelines, such as Apache Airflow.
