- Key responsibilities on this engagement
- • Run the Sprint 1 architecture review of the existing UAT codebase (S3 + Glue + S3 Tables + OpenSearch + Athena) and deliver written gap findings.
- • Design the metadata schema, taxonomy, and field catalogue (Light, Brain, Power).
- • Tune data orchestration — Glue jobs, Athena queries, S3 Tables config, scheduling. Lead the deep-dive technical sessions with analysts on visualization requirements
- • Build and validate the simulation data onboarding pipeline against real data — including the 30 GB-per-run acoustic spectra dataset.
- • Configure and validate the OpenSearch k-NN vector store and the Bedrock embedding pipeline.
- • Author the AI/ML data export format specification and the AI onboarding pattern document.
- • Co-design the API middleware blueprint with the Cloud Infrastructure Architect.
- Must-have
- Principal-level hands-on data engineering on AWS — 7+ years
- Deep production experience with S3, S3 Tables, Glue, Athena, and OpenSearch
