Job Description
AMD seeks an AI Data Engineer to design a medallion data lakehouse and end-to-end pipelines for manufacturing, IoT, and yield analysis data, leveraging AI tooling to accelerate development across multiple engines.
Responsibilities
- Architect and maintain a scalable medallion data lakehouse structure with Bronze, Silver, and Gold layers using Apache Iceberg.
- Construct and optimize curated Gold-layer data products for high‑performance consumption across an open ecosystem of engines including Snowflake, Databricks (Spark), Trino/Starburst, AWS Athena, and Presto.
- Design, develop, and manage complex, resilient data workflows and DAGs with Apache Airflow.
- Build, deploy, and monitor end-to-end ETL/ELT pipelines to ingest diverse semiconductor data streams into the data lake.
- Model data to enable high‑performance consumption, delivering clean, transformed, production‑ready datasets.
- Write and tune highly optimized SQL queries for transformation, analysis, and performance benchmarking.
- Leverage generative AI coding assistants and automation tools to speed up pipeline development, documentation, and testing.
- Implement data governance practices, data quality checks, and schema evolution rules within Iceberg and Snowflake environments.
Requirements
- Demonstrated experience in software, data engineering, and data management.
- Hands-on expertise scheduling and monitoring production-grade pipelines with Apache Airflow.
- Proven ability to design medallion architectures and extensive experience with Apache Iceberg.
- Advanced proficiency with Snowflake and hands-on experience building transformation models in DBT Core.
- Expert level SQL and Python knowledge with mastery of modern ETL/ELT patterns and design principles.
- Ability to write high quality code with keen attention to detail.
- Experience with modern concurrent programming and threading APIs.
- Experience with software development processes and tools such as debuggers, GitHub, and profilers is a plus.
- Demonstrated use of AI tooling to accelerate development, including GitHub Copilot, Snowflake Cortex, LLM APIs, Claude Code, and related platforms.
- Proven track record delivering multiple enterprise-grade, production-level, end-to-end data pipeline solutions from scratch.
