Develop and manage metadata-driven, real-time streaming pipelines and distributed data processing workflows at scale

Build and expand the feature store through data modeling, pipeline development, feature building, and data transforms that accelerate ML model readiness

Contribute to the design and build of pricing semantic layers, ontologies, and knowledge graphs to ensure consistent, reusable data definitions across the organization

Support Data Marketplace development, enabling teams to discover, access, and share data products across the organization

Develop cognitive search engine capabilities and support Data Syndication to distribute data across internal and external consumers

Build and expand the feature store through data modeling, pipeline development, feature building, and data transforms
