Analytics Engineer III
About the role
Summary
Analytics Engineer III
data engineering
ML engineering
Data & Lakehouse Engineering
- Design and operate end-to-end data products - ingestion → medallion architecture → transformation → serving → CI/CD → observability - on Databricks at enterprise scale
- Build production-grade Lakehouse pipelines using Delta Lake (OPTIMIZE, ZORDER, liquid clustering, CDF), Unity Catalog, Workflows, Delta Live Tables, and Structured Streaming
- Deploy using Databricks Asset Bundles (DABs); write modular Python code with secure credential management via service principals, secret scopes, and IAM
- Define and enforce data engineering standards - versioned pipelines, data contracts, automated quality gates, lineage, and standardized project templates
- Drive Databricks optimization - cluster sizing, Photon, autoscaling, and SQL warehouse tuning
ML Engineering & MLOps
- Design and operate end-to-end ML pipelines - feature engineering, model training, evaluation, deployment, serving, and monitoring - with emphasis on scalability and reliability
- Build and maintain MLOps platform components - experiment tracking, model registries, CI/CD for ML, feature stores, and containerized environments
- Define CI/CD strategy for ML - model validation gates, canary/shadow deployments, automated rollback, and high-availability inference patterns
- Manage production ML pipeline schedules across batch and real-time inference - SLA adherence, issue triage, and incident resolution
Observability & Platform
- Architect observability across data and ML systems - Great Expectations, Pandera, Evidently, Databricks Lakehouse Monitoring, Prometheus, Grafana - covering data quality, model drift, and SLAs/SLOs
- Lead cloud migration and modernization to AWS, Databricks, and Kubernetes-based architectures
- Develop reusable libraries, templates, and frameworks to reduce engineering toil for data scientists and peers
- Leverage AI tools (Claude Code, Copilot) to accelerate delivery and build reusable skills/agents
Collaboration & Standards
- Partner with Data Science, MLOps, IT, and US counterparts on execution, planning, and delivery
- Conduct code and design reviews; contribute to team standards and help unblock peers
- Ensure compliance with GxP, HIPAA, and pharmaceutical data governance standards with Unity Catalog as the governance backbone
- Communicate technical decisions clearly through documentation, runbooks, and RFCs
