  • Leverage AIassisted code generation, anomaly detection, and query optimization techniques to accelerate development and reduce technical debt.
  • Partner with data scientists and engineers to integrate AIdriven data quality checks and intelligent monitoring into pipeline workflows.
  • Support website visitor identification, adserving attribution, measurement pipelines, and logfile tracking through robust database solutions.
  • Evaluate and adopt emerging AI tooling relevant to data engineering-including LLMassisted SQL generation, automated schema inference, and intelligent data cataloging.
  • Mentor junior team members on best practices in database design, query optimization, and responsible AI integration.
  • Contribute to the evolution of the data architecture strategy with an eye toward realtime processing, governance, and compliance in regulated markets.
Qualifications
Required
  • Expertlevel SQL proficiency with 5+ years of handson database development experience.
  • Proven database design and ETL skills across largescale, production environments.
  • Experience with Amazon Redshift or comparable cloudnative analytical databases (e.g., Snowflake, BigQuery).
  • Strong grasp of data modeling, normalization, indexing strategies, and query optimization techniques.
  • Excellent analytical thinking and problemsolving abilities, with a track record of resolving complex data challenges.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related technical field.
Preferred
  • Demonstrated experience integrating AI tools into database workflows-such as AIassisted query tuning, automated ETL anomaly detection, or LLMaugmented data pipeline development.
  • Familiarity with AI/ML frameworks applied to structured data collection, classification, and optimization problems.
  • Background in web analytics infrastructure: visitor tracking, tagging, logfile analysis, ad serving, attribution, and measurement pipelines.
  • Experience as a database application programmer on bigdata or realtime processing projects.
  • Database architect experience with a strong systems design orientation.
Why Join Our Client
  • Work at the forefront of identity resolution and datadriven marketing technology.
  • Join a culture that actively encourages and invests in the use of AI to improve engineering workflows.
  • Collaborate with a highcaliber team solving meaningful data challenges in privacysensitive, regulated industries.
