Overview:

Our client in the commercial banking domain is hiring two Machine Learning Data Engineers to support a high-impact initiative within the Data Quality Team.

The second will be more of an Engineer/Business Analyst hybrid, supporting the lead architect and contributing to model development and automation efforts.

These roles are part of a strategic effort to automate the review of over 25,000 data quality rules currently being manually aggregated and analyzed. The goal is to build and implement a prototype ML model by year-end, so candidates must be available for a fast-paced delivery timeline (no extended time off planned in December).

Project Scope:
  • Automate the rule review process currently handled manually using Informatica IDQ, with a transition toward Snowflake.
  • Develop and deploy a Machine Learning model to analyze rule pass/fail outcomes.
  • Improve efficiency by reducing manual resource dependency through intelligent automation.


Responsibilities:
  • Follow the company's software development lifecycle to design, code, configure, test, debug, and document system and application programs.
  • Prepare technical design specifications based on functional requirements and analysis documents.
  • Participate in architecture, design, and code reviews.
  • Collaborate with development staff to ensure quality and consistency.
  • Develop and maintain operational and system-level documentation.
  • Build and implement a prototype ML model with a quick turnaround.
  • Support scalable API integrations between internal and external systems (nice to have).


Core Requirements:
  • Strong command of SQL and experience with relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, Snowflake).
  • Proficient in Python and/or R for data analysis and model development.
  • Experience with ML/AI programming and modern machine learning standards.
  • Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform) and services like Lambda, S3, Azure Functions, BigQuery.
  • Familiarity with automation frameworks (e.g., Power Automate, Python scripting).
  • Understanding of data quality, management, and governance concepts.
  • Experience with Web Application Server enhancements and infrastructure standards.


Preferred Qualifications (Nice-to-Haves):
  • Experience with Informatica IDQ.
  • Familiarity with Snowflake ML libraries or programming extensions.
  • Background in designing and implementing scalable API integrations.


Soft Skills:
  • Highly motivated, proactive, and collaborative team player.
  • Able to work independently and meet tight deadlines.
  • Strong communication and problem-solving skills.
