* Job Description:

***
* Essential Functions:

*** Data Pipelining & Infrastructure
* Build, optimize, and maintain the data pipelines that feed BAA's AI solutions, connecting both structured and unstructured data from enterprise data lakes (Snowflake), ERP systems (Epicor), CRM (Salesforce), and document repositories (SharePoint).
* Automate the ingestion and structuring of unstructured data (PDFs, manuals, contracts, emails) to enable highly accurate Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures.
* Map complex enterprise data schemas to identify the exact tables, fields, and payloads required to support the cognitive architecture designed by the AI Studio Lead.
* Build and maintain development and testing environments that allow the Studio to experiment rapidly without risking production systems.
* Security, Governance & Compliance
* Design and implement strict Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and enterprise security protocols within the AI environment — ensuring AI agents only query data explicitly authorized for the specific end-user.
* Prevent data leakage across departments by structurally constraining what each AI model can access at the pipeline level, not just the application level.
* Serve as the formal infrastructure checkpoint before cognitive architecture development begins — confirming pipeline stability, RBAC compliance, and data integrity prior to any build phase commencing.
* Monitor data flows for system drift, broken APIs, or context collapse, ensuring AI outputs remain accurate and safe for both office and factory floor operations.
* Establish and maintain Service Level Agreements (SLAs) for pipeline uptime — detecting and communicating failures before end-users are impacted.
* Platform Integration & IT Liaison
* Develop secure API integrations between enterprise AI platforms and BAA's existing technology stack.
* Serve as the primary technical liaison to BAA IT and Global Data Architecture, ensuring infrastructure provisioning, database access, and cloud networking meet enterprise standards.
* Advocate for the AI Studio's technical needs within the broader IT governance ecosystem.
* Implement automated alerting systems for data pipeline failures.
** Knowledge, Skills, Abilities:
*** Deep technical expertise working with SQL, enterprise data lakes, and ETL/ELT pipeline construction.
* Strong proficiency in building and securing API integrations between disparate cloud and on-premises systems.
* Experience implementing strict security frameworks and Role-Based Access Controls (RBAC) at the database and application layer.
* Exceptional troubleshooting and debugging skills — able to independently diagnose integration issues across legacy platforms without waiting for vendor support.
* Comfort operating in a small, fast-moving team where you own entire work streams end-to-end without layers of specialization or handoffs.
*
* Minimum Requirements:

*** Bachelor’s degree and minimum of 6 years of related work experience required.
* An equivalent combination of education and/or related work experience equal to 10 years will also be considered.
* 3+ years of experience in data engineering, data architecture, or database administration within an enterprise environment.
