  • Build and maintain data lakes, warehouses, and real-time data streaming platforms that serve AI development needs
  • Ensure data quality by implementing data validation, anomaly detection, and integrity checks
  • Automate data extraction, transformation, and loading processes to streamline data availability for AI models
  • Monitor and optimize the performance of AI data pipelines, ensuring efficiency and low latency
  • Implement data security, privacy, and governance best practices for compliance with AI development standards
  • Collaborate with machine learning experts to deploy training data at scale, ensuring readiness for neural network experimentation
