Project Overview
Our client is an established product company in the sports-tech industry, delivering a mobile application focused on skill assessment and talent evaluation. The platform enables users to record short performance exercises via smartphone, which are then processed using AI-based computer vision to generate objective performance metrics and rankings. The solution connects end users with organizations seeking data-driven insights for talent identification.
In This Role, You Will
- Define and implement core data models (users, events, performance)
- Design and operate robust, production-grade data pipelines
- Establish a single source of truth for key business and product metrics
- Structure data for business and product analysis (retention, funnels, activation)
- Build and deploy data services and jobs on AWS (e.g. S3, Lambda, ECS/EKS, Glue, Athena, Redshift, etc.)
- Make pragmatic decisions on how data is stored, processed, and accessed
- Evaluate and introduce tools (e.g. BigQuery, Snowflake, Databricks) where they add clear value
- Ensure the architecture scales with product, AI, and data growth without overengineering
- Optimize pipelines for scalability, cost efficiency, and performance.
- Write clean, maintainable, and well-structured Python code following software engineering best practices.
- Work closely with Product, Engineering, AI, and Business teams
