Full Job Description
The Role:

The Data Enablement Team enables the organization to derive value from enterprise data by building reusable platforms, tools, and services that help users and applications discover, understand, and safely consume trusted data products for production, analytics, and research use cases. The team owns the enterprise Data Portal and the FinSights BI Portal (one-stop shop for enterprise BI assets), builds low-latency consumption services on top of the Enterprise Data Fabric and data catalog, and delivers product governance services, operational dashboards, and computational governance embedded into the platform. The team uses automation and agentic techniques as implementation tools to improve discovery, comprehension, and self-serve user journeys across departments-while maintaining security, entitlements, and policy controls by design.

The Team:

Design and build core platform services that power enterprise data discovery and consumption, including portal backends, APIs, governance workflows, and programmatic consumption interfaces on top of the Enterprise Data Fabric. Ensure services are secure, scalable, and adopted across departments.

Accountabilities
  • Design, architect, and evolve Data Enablement services to improve data discovery, access, and trust across the organization
  • Drive adoption of services by engaging users, understanding needs, and iterating on solutions to maximize value
  • Ensure solutions are scalable, resilient, and secure by applying DevSecOps practices, automation, and operational standards
  • Produce and maintain solution architecture artifacts (e.g., HLD/LLD, threat models) and support governance processes (ARB, Information Security)
  • Partner with Cloud Foundation and Data Foundation teams to align with enterprise standards, shared services, and platform guardrails
  • Build and operate backend services supporting enterprise data platforms and portals
  • Define and maintain API standards, including contracts, versioning, and compatibility
  • Contribute to workflow automation capabilities used within Data Enablement solutions under enterprise controls


Qualifications
  • Undergraduate degree or college diploma in related field (e.g. Engineering, Computer Science).
  • 6+ years of experience delivering production-grade software services
  • Strong programming skills in Python
  • Strong experience with AWS cloud platform, including networking, security, and multi-account environments
  • Solid understanding of identity and access management (e.g., IAM, Cognito, authentication/authorization patterns)
  • Experience building APIs and backend services (REST/GraphQL, event-driven architectures, resiliency patterns)
  • Hands-on experience with Infrastructure-as-Code and DevSecOps practices (e.g., Terraform, CI/CD pipelines, automated security controls)
  • Experience with observability and reliability practices (logging, monitoring, alerting, incident response)
  • Strong API design experience (OpenAPI/Swagger, versioning, backward compatibility)
  • Experience working with data formats and schema validation/transformation (e.g., JSON)
  • Experience building and operating backend services for user-facing platforms


  • Nice to have
  • Experience with agentic or orchestration frameworks (e.g., AWS Bedrock, LangChain, LlamaIndex)
  • Understanding of retrieval approaches such as RAG/GraphRAG and vector search (e.g., OpenSearch, Pinecone, Weaviate)
  • Experience with containerization and platform operations (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes/EKS)
  • Familiarity with data query and serving layers (e.g., Redshift, Trino, StarRocks) and governed data access patterns
  • AWS Data & Analytics certification; ML-related certification is a plus
