Senior Data Architect (Python · Lakehouse · AI Decisioning)

Solvpath is a fast-paced company specializing in cutting-edge technology for post-sale ecommerce processes, including customer support, retention, returns, cancellation deflection, and uncovering new revenue streams. Our solutions increasingly leverage AI to automate these functions. Currently, our data powers reporting for some of the highest-volume direct-to-consumer brands, and we are seeking a skilled professional to take full ownership of this data and architect its future evolution.

Key Responsibilities
You will be responsible for owning the entire data architecture, including how data is structured, stored, and transferred across platforms as we scale. Your role will involve transitioning our capabilities from static reporting and dashboards to real-time, AI-driven decision-making. You will define every KPI formula with precision and ensure complete transparency and accuracy behind every reported number. Additional responsibilities include optimizing speed and bandwidth for handling high-volume data, designing real-time decision logic such as rules, decision trees, and AI models, and leveraging AI to automate data workflows.

Required Qualifications
- Minimum of 7 years’ experience in data engineering or data architecture, with at least 2 years owning a data platform end to end.
- At least 3 years of production experience working with Databricks, Snowflake, or similar lakehouse or data warehouse technologies.
- Strong proficiency in SQL and Python, including API development (experience with Django is preferred).
- Hands-on production experience with decision logic frameworks such as decision trees, scoring systems, or AI/ML models.
- Proven track record of defining metrics and being accountable for their accuracy.
- Regular, daily use of AI tools in your workflow.
- Stability in recent employment, with at least 2 years at your last two employers.

Candidates who do not meet all of these minimum requirements will not be considered.

Preferred Qualifications and Benefits
Experience with AWS, ClickHouse, and front-end frameworks like React or Angular is a plus. Familiarity with ecommerce or high-volume consumer data environments is also advantageous.

Joining Solvpath means working on the forefront of AI innovation, having genuine ownership over your projects, and maintaining a direct line of communication with company leadership. This is an opportunity to shape the future of data-driven ecommerce technology in a dynamic and rapidly growing company.

To apply, please prepare your CV and be ready to discuss:
1. A data platform you have owned end to end, including the challenges faced, your solution, and the outcomes achieved.
2. An instance where you identified inaccuracies in a report, how you resolved the issue, and the measures you implemented to prevent recurrence.

We look forward to reviewing applications from candidates who meet the criteria and are excited to contribute to our mission.
