About the Position

We are seeking a brilliant, experienced Data Engineer to join our elite team. This is not just a backend role; it is an opportunity to join a tight-knit team where your impact is visible and immediate. You will build the data infrastructure that powers our validation engines and AI R&D breakthroughs. Working with datasets derived from real-world driving with top-tier car brands, you will enable the next generation of AI-based driver monitoring systems.

If you are looking for a place where quality matters, the culture is supportive yet ambitious, and the technology is cutting-edge — this is the place for you.

Responsibilities

• Own the Data Architecture

Design, build, and maintain our data warehouse, including scalable data pipelines for the ingestion, storage, and processing of both structured and unstructured datasets (images, video, and telemetry) from our global in-car data collection campaigns.

• Drive R&D Success

Develop and optimize data architectures that directly support the Algorithm team’s research and the D&V team’s validation activities.

• Automation & Tooling
• Develop automated ETL/ELT workflows to ensure frictionless access to “ground truth” datasets and regulatory validation datasets (including NCAP‑driven requirements).
• Create internal tools (CLI or UI-based) to streamline data retrieval, annotation, and quality assurance.
• Guarantee Quality

Implement data‑quality controls, integrity checks, lineage tracking, and dataset versioning aligned with automotive-grade rigor.

Ensure compliance with internal and external (OEM, regulatory) standards.

• Technical Leadership

Act as a solution architect within the D&V team, building technical bridges between our local algorithm experts and global product teams.

Guide the organization on data infrastructure advancements, cloud best practices, and scalable compute strategies.
