• Implement chunking, cleaning, and enrichment strategies that improve retrieval quality and support downstream RAG systems.
• Build change-detection, deduplication, and incremental update mechanisms to keep large document corpora synchronized efficiently and reliably.
• Engineer pipelines for correctness, throughput, and resilience, with strong handling for malformed inputs, large files, and high-volume processing.
• Establish data quality checks, observability, and metrics so ingestion issues are identified early and resolved quickly.
• Partner with stakeholders to understand source systems and content requirements and translate them into reliable, production-ready ingestion solutions.
• Stay current with advances in AI, LLMs, document AI, and retrieval techniques, and apply relevant improvements to the team’s solutions.

What You Bring

• 4+ years of experience and strong proficiency in Python, including building data pipelines, services, and APIs.
• Hands-on experience designing and developing ETL and data pipeline solutions, including processing large data volumes.
• Experience with document processing and text extraction, including PDF and Office document parsing, OCR, and unstructured content handling.
• Solid understanding of data modeling, transformation, and data quality best practices.
• Experience designing, building, testing, and debugging high-performance, reliable systems.
• Clear communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
