If you don’t think you meet all of the criteria below but are still interested in the job, please apply. Nobody checks every box - we’re looking for candidates that are particularly strong in a few areas, and have some interest and capabilities in others.

About the Role:

We're looking for a Senior Data & AI Engineer to join our Revenue Analytics team. In this role, you'll own both the data infrastructure and AI systems that power revenue insights and intelligent experiences across the business. You'll be responsible for building and maintaining reliable pipelines and scalable data models and determining how we connect those data assets to AI tools β€” which solutions we invest in, and how we do it securely and cost-effectively.

You'll sit at the intersection of data engineering, AI/ML, and platform architecture, with high visibility and real impact on our long-term data and AI strategy.

What You'll Do:


DATA INFRASTRUCTURE & PIPELINES

- Design, build, and maintain ETL/ELT pipelines using Fivetran + Snowflake integrations to ingest data from a variety of sources into our Snowflake data warehouse

- Develop and manage robust data models in Snowflake, ensuring data is structured for performance, reliability, and ease of use by analysts and business stakeholders

- Use Hightouch to operationalize data by syncing warehouse data to downstream CRM, marketing, and sales tools

- Monitor pipeline health, troubleshoot data quality issues, and implement alerting to proactively catch failures

- Document data models, pipelines, and lineage to support a culture of data literacy and self-service analytics


AI INFRASTRUCTURE & INTEGRATIONS

- Integrate Claude and other LLMs directly with our Snowflake data warehouse, enabling AI-powered querying, summarization, and insight generation on top of live revenue data

- Build and maintain data sources, semantic layers, and search services within Snowflake Cortex and connected AI platforms

- Design and deploy AI agents that can reason over structured and unstructured revenue data to support go-to-market workflows


AGENT ORCHESTRATION

- Architect and manage multi-step agent workflows, coordinating across tools, APIs, and data sources to automate complex analytical and operational tasks

- Evaluate and implement orchestration frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LlamaIndex, or custom solutions) best suited to our use cases


AI STRATEGY & EVALUATION

- Run rigorous evaluations of AI tools, models, and platforms to determine the best solution for each use case (e.g., Snowflake Cortex vs. Claude vs. Gemini vs. custom fine-tuned models)

- Develop evaluation frameworks covering quality, latency, cost, and security to inform build vs. buy decisions and guide our overall AI roadmap

- Stay current on the rapidly evolving AI landscape and proactively recommend new tools or approaches as the space matures


SECURITY & GOVERNANCE

- Implement and manage row-level se
