Summary

Data Engineer.

Location: 100% remote

Role focus
This person would review and improve our data lake documentation in Unity Catalog, trace the upstream data pipelines that generate the data, and update business-friendly definitions so the documentation reflects how the data is actually created and used.
Core responsibilities

Review existing Unity Catalog table and field documentation and identify gaps, inaccuracies, and missing business context
Analyze upstream data pipelines and SQL logic to understand how data is sourced, transformed, and published
Run discovery sessions with Shruthi’s team, Tyler’s team, and my team to capture business meaning, usage context, and known data limitations
Document approved data use cases, including how specific datasets should be used for reporting, analysis, and AI/LLM scenarios
Document data restrictions, including sensitive data considerations, inappropriate use cases, and areas where definitions or quality are not strong enough for broad agent or LLM use
Help identify and structure use cases where LLMs or agents could responsibly interact with the data
Test LLM responses against documented definitions and use cases to evaluate whether outputs are accurate, safe, and grounded in the intended business context
Flag gaps in metadata, definitions, lineage, data quality, and ownership that must be addressed before wider AI enablement

Skills needed

Strong SQL skills
Experience working with data lake, warehouse, or analytics environments
Ability to read and reason through data pipelines and transformation logic
Strong documentation skills, especially translating technical logic into business-friendly definitions
Comfortable leading discovery conversations with technical and business stakeholders
Familiarity with data governance, data quality, semantic definitions, and responsible AI / LLM validation is strongly preferred
