• Partner closely with ML engineers to enable model training, evaluation, and benchmarking pipelines

• Improve pipeline performance, reliability, and observability, ensuring high data quality in production

• Build and maintain systems to support model performance tracking and data drift monitoring

• Troubleshoot and resolve data issues across pipelines, ensuring minimal impact on ML workflows

• Contribute to data architecture decisions and best practices across the platform

• Collaborate cross-functionally with ML, platform, and data teams to support scalable ML infrastructure

What We’re Looking For

• Hands-on experience with AWS services (S3, EC2, SageMaker or similar)

• Solid experience building and managing Airflow (or similar orchestration tools)

• Strong understanding of data engineering fundamentals (ETL/ELT, data modeling, pipeline design)

• Experience working with large-scale datasets and distributed data systems

• Experience supporting ML workflows, datasets, or evaluation pipelines

• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment

Nice to Have

• Experience with ML infrastructure, MLOps, or model evaluation workflows

• Exposure to biometric systems or computer vision datasets

• Familiarity with data quality frameworks, monitoring, and observability tools

• Experience working in SaaS or high-scale production environments
