  • Drive the development of DS workflow and AI-native integrations (e.g., Superset MCP, Claude integrations) that extend self-serve data access and reduce time-to-insight for stakeholders.
  • Provide technical mentorship to junior data scientists and contribute to hiring and team-building, establishing best practices for data modeling, pipeline design, and evaluation methodology.

  • Proven experience architecting scalable data pipelines using distributed systems (e.g., PySpark/Spark SQL), orchestration frameworks (e.g., Airflow), and cloud platforms (e.g., AWS EMR, S3, Snowflake or equivalent).
  • Proficiency in Python and SQL; track record of translating complex analytical work into measurable business outcomes and operational KPIs.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead technical workstreams and drive cross-functional alignment.
  • Experience providing technical leadership and mentoring to data scientists or engineers.
  • Experience building evaluation pipelines or harnesses for agentic or LLM-powered systems.
  • Experience with conversational analytics, NLP, or AI-assisted data exploration tooling.
  • Prior work on self-serve analytics platforms or customer-facing data products at enterprise scale.
  • Experience using modern AI productivity tooling (e.g., Claude, Cursor, Codex) within an enterprise SDLC.
