Job Description

Based in Santa Clara, CA onsite, NVIDIA seeks a Senior Data Engineer to design and scale cloud-based data platforms and analytics for engineering data analytics, focusing on data models, pipelines, and AI enabled insights.

Responsibilities

  • Build and evolve trusted engineering analytics datasets, data models, and data products for semiconductor product, manufacturing, and test data.
  • Translate complex domain concepts into reliable data structures, metric logic, validation rules, and reusable analytics layers.
  • Own and improve curated data layers, including prep/fact tables, silver/gold datasets, semantic views, and analytics-ready outputs.
  • Partner with product engineering, UI, and data engineering teams to turn ambiguous engineering questions into scalable data solutions.
  • Define data quality checks, acceptance criteria, and validation frameworks for production analytics data.
  • Provide technical direction by defining standards, reviewing designs, and ensuring long-term maintainability.
  • Help guide the evolution of data architecture across modern warehouse, data lake, and lakehouse technologies such as Redshift, S3/Athena, and Databricks.
  • Support AI-enabled analytics by building well-governed, semantically clear datasets for AI-based exploration, anomaly detection, prediction, and recommendations.
  • Optimize data pipelines and analytics datasets for correctness, performance, scalability, reliability, and cost.

Requirements

  • Strong SQL skills, including advanced concepts such as window functions, CTEs, complex joins, aggregation patterns, query optimization, and analytical query design.
  • Strong Python skills, or equivalent experience building data-intensive software systems.
  • Experience designing data models, analytics datasets, data products, or application data layers.
  • Experience building or owning production data pipelines, data platforms, or analytics systems.
  • Solid understanding of data correctness, table grain, lineage, metric definitions, validation rules, and data quality standards.
  • Ability to learn complex technical domains and identify when data outputs are technically valid but semantically wrong.
  • Ability to work cross-functionally with domain experts, engineers, product/UI teams, and data engineering teams while providing technical ownership and judgment.
  • Interest in applied AI/ML and how trusted data foundations enable AI-based exploration, anomaly detection, predictive analytics, and recommendations.
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science or Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering (or equivalent experience) and 8+ years of relevant experience.
