ABOUT THE ROLE
We are looking for a part-time Data Engineering and Infrastructure Lead to audit AWS architecture, CI/CD processes, and ETL pipeline decisions in an advisory capacity. This person weighs managed tooling against custom builds, reviews SageMaker-based MLOps pipelines, and mentors the team on engineering standards. Evaluating AI-assisted development workflows is part of the role. WHAT YOU WILL DO
-
- Audit the current AWS architecture across live applications (MAT / Signal IQ and the Impact Engine), including ECS/ECR, RDS (Postgres), S3, VPC, CloudFront/SSO, and SageMaker-based MLOPs pipeline design.
-
- Review the CI/CD process and end-to-end app development lifecycle, recommending SDLC governance layers (schema versioning, environment separation, release gating).
-
- Evaluate how the team uses Claude Code (PR generation, automated reviews, token/cost management) to confirm output meets professional engineering standards.
-
- Provide an early technical opinion on ETL / data-ingestion pipeline architecture (managed ELT tooling vs. custom build).
-
- Mentor and accelerate the day-to-day infrastructure build team, focusing on AWS, DevOps, CI/CD, and data engineering practices.
-
- Set out recommendations and technical direction where the audit surfaces necessary changes to the current build.
-
- Report findings and recommendations directly to leadership, framing high-level risk and readiness. MUST HAVES
-
- 6+ years of deep, current hands-on experience with AWS: ECS/Fargate, ECR, RDS (Postgres), S3, SageMaker, EventBridge, VPC/ALB/CloudFront, IAM.
-
- Fluency in Infrastructure-as-code, specifically Terraform.
-
- Proven track record designing or auditing CI/CD pipelines and SDLC governance (e.g., Alembic for schema/version control, environment separation, release gating).
-
- Strong data engineering depth to provide defensible opinions on ETL / ingestion architecture (managed tools vs. custom builds).
-
- Experience evaluating AI-assisted / LLM-assisted development workflows (e.g., Claude Code) from an engineering-quality and cost-governance standpoint.
-
- Comfortable operating in a part-time advisory capacity (50% stepping down to 25%) as a strong communicator who can mentor less experienced engineers. NICE TO HAVES
-
- Prior experience working with small, fast-moving engineering teams.
-
- Understanding of MLOps pipelines and data science infrastructure.
-
- Media/AdTech domain knowledge is helpful but not required. PERKS AND BENEFITS
-
- Professional growth: Accelerate your professional journey with mentorship, TechTalks, and personalized growth roadmaps.
-
- Competitive compensation: We match your ever-growing skills, talent, and contributions with competitive USD-based compensation and budgets for education, fitness, and team activities.
-
- A selection of exciting projects: Join projects with modern solutions development and top-tier clients that include Fortune 500 enterprises and leading product brands.
-
- Flextime: Tailor your schedule for an optimal work-life balance, by having the options of working from home and going to the office – whatever makes you the happiest and most productive.
