We build and operate the production systems that turn raw customer interactions into structured insights consumed in real time by downstream agentic experiences. Our work runs on a modern data and ML platform — distributed processing on Spark, lakehouse storage on Iceberg and Delta, transformation in dbt, orchestration in Airflow, and serving through Postgres and FastAPI. We operate at the intersection of large-scale data engineering, applied ML, and production LLM systems. For more information, visit: https://www.amdocs.com/products-services/aos/cognitive-core. We are looking for a highly-motivated software engineer to join the Platform team within CCI. In this role, you will design, build, and operate the production data and ML pipelines that power our customer-insight products — writing the code that ingests, transforms, models, and serves data at scale. This is a hands-on engineering role focused on production reliability and delivery. You will own pipelines end to end — from design and implementation through deployment, monitoring, and iteration — and partner closely with data scientists, GenAI engineers, and the CCI architect to bring new use cases to life. ## What will your job look like? * Build and operate production pipelines. Design, implement, and own end-to-end data and ML pipelines — ingestion, transformation, model integration, and serving — that run reliably at scale on real customer data. * Model data well. Define and evolve the data models that downstream teams consume — clean contracts, sensible grain, partition-aware design, and a clear story for how each table is produced and consumed. * Write production-grade code. Build Python and SQL systems that are testable, observable, performant, and operable in production. * Engineer for reliability, latency, and cost. Reason explicitly about data volumes, partition pruning, compute cost, and SLA boundaries; tune pipelines for correctness and efficiency. * Own orchestration at production scale. Build and maintain orchestrated workflows with proper dependency management, idempotency, retries, watermarking, and observability. * Integrate ML and LLM systems. Land model and LLM outputs as well-modeled data products consumed by downstream insights and APIs; partner with data scientists and GenAI engineers on integration boundaries. * Raise the engineering bar. Contribute to design reviews, define internal standards for pipeline development, and share knowledge with peers. ## All you need is... Must Have * 5+ years of hands-on software engineering experience, preferrably on data platforms, with a track record of shipping and operating production systems at scale. * Degree in a quantitative or engineering field (Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent). * Strong Python and SQL: production-grade code with modern Python practices (testing, type hints, packaging, performance awareness. * Hands-on experience with distributed data processing (Spark or equivalent) on real production workloads. * Solid grounding in data modeling: multi-layer architectures (Bronze/Silver/Gold), partitioning strategies, and incremental processing patterns. * Experience with modern transformation tooling (dbt or equivalent) and lakehouse formats. * Experience operating production workflow orchestration (Airflow or equivalent), in
