You will define high-performance schemas, orchestrate complex hybrid-database environments (Snowflake/Kinetica/NoSQL), and serve as the primary technical liaison for our customers. This is a high-visibility role blending deep technical governance with strategic relationship development. **Key Responsibilities:** * System Architecture: Design the end-to-end blueprint for a modern data layer that seamlessly integrates structured, unstructured, and relational (Graph) data for AI agents. * Schema & Ontology Design: Define multi-tenant schemas and Knowledge Graph ontologies that allow LLM agents to perform complex reasoning and cross-domain data retrieval. * Database Administration & Governance: Oversee the health, security, and performance optimization of our data clusters (Snowflake/Kinetica), ensuring 99.9% availability for mission-critical AI workflows. * Strategic Client Fronting: Act as the "Face of Engineering" for the customer. Lead discovery workshops, manage technical expectations, and align the architectural roadmap with their business objectives. * Performance Engineering: Establish benchmarks for data latency and retrieval accuracy, ensuring the data layer can keep pace with the real-time demands of agentic executionrability standards **Basic Qualifications:** * System Architecture: Design the end-to-end blueprint for a modern data layer that seamlessly integrates structured, unstructured, and relational (Graph) data for AI agents. * Schema & Ontology Design: Define multi-tenant schemas and Knowledge Graph ontologies that allow LLM agents to perform complex reasoning and cross-domain data retrieval. * Database Administration & Governance: Oversee the health, security, and performance optimization of our data clusters (Snowflake/Kinetica), ensuring 99.9% availability for mission-critical AI workflows. * Strategic Client Fronting: Act as the "Face of Engineering" for the customer.
