Sr. AI Platform Data Engineer, Ring Decision Science, Ring Decision Science

We seek an AI Platform Builder—a Data Engineer focused on developing Platforms and Agentic AI solution—who embraces prompt-driven development with strong technical, analytical, communication, and stakeholder management skills. This role sits at the intersection of data engineering, business intelligence, and platform engineering—requiring partnership with software development engineers, scientists, data analysts, and business stakeholders across various verticals. You will design, evangelize, and implement platform features and curated datasets that power Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) initiatives and self-service analytics, helping us provide a great neighbor experience at greater velocity.

This role requires a first-principles approach to leveraging AI at every layer of the data stack—from using AI agents to write and optimize code, to building AI-powered platforms that serve AI models, to deploying intelligent agents that make data accessible. You will use AI to build AI infrastructure, automate the automation, and create self-improving systems that continuously enhance data quality, discoverability, and usability.

Key job responsibilities

You will build and maintain efficient, scalable, and privacy/security-compliant data pipelines, curated datasets for AI/ML consumption, and AI-native self-service data platforms using an AI-first development methodology. As a trusted technical partner to business stakeholders and data science teams, you'll deliver well-modeled, easily discoverable data optimized for specific use cases while leveraging AI-powered solutions and agentic frameworks to build continuously improving systems.

A day in the life

• Lead AI-assisted stakeholder engagement sessions across verticals like Subscriptions, Security, Sales, and Marketing
• Design and build curated datasets leveraging AI code generation and Agentic AI tools
• Build and maintain data pipelines using AI-assisted development with AWS services and internal Amazon tools

This Role will:

• Implement AI-powered self-service platforms with natural language interfaces
• Create intelligent governance systems for data classification, PII detection, and lineage tracking
• Facilitate AI-augmented workshops for stakeholders to explore data capabilities collaboratively
