Accenture is recognized as a global leader in AI and cloud transformation, helping businesses across industries reimagine the digital core for an AI-native operating model. Through partnerships with frontier AI labs such as Anthropic and OpenAI, and the leading cloud providers, Accenture delivers end-to-end services that drive innovation and business agility.

You Are:

A data engineer who doesn't trust the documentation either - you'd rather mine the git history and trace the lineage than take a schema diagram at its word.

The Work:

You lead the data-engineering work on a migration engagement: pipelines and data products feeding AI systems (Data Pipelines and Data Products),



with evidence-extraction techniques - dependency analysis, git-history mining - applied to the source estate before a single mapping is trusted.

Travel may be required for this role. The amount of travel will vary from 0 to 100% depending on business need and client requirements.

Here's what you need:

- Minimum of 5 years of hands-on data engineering or data platform engineering, with at least 1-2 years specifically on AI/LLM-related data work.

- Minimum of 4 years of experience working in agile engineering or consulting teams.

- Minimum of 3 years with Python and SQL at production scale, plus at least one cloud data platform.

- Working fluency with data lineage and data observability - catching drift as data drift before it surfaces as AI drift

- Minimum of 1 year designing data supply for AI systems - vector stores, embedding pipelines, or agent-facing data products.

- AI-adjacent experience counts toward the bars above: strong credentials in the neighboring discipline combined with 1-2 years of hands-on LLM work is exactly the profile we grow.

- Bachelor's degree or equivalent (minimum 12 years) work experience. (If Associate's Degree, must have minimum 6 years work experience).

Bonus Points if You Have:

- Streaming and CDC experience (Kafka, Flink, or equivalent)





- Code-analysis or archaeology tooling exposure - you'll work beside our excavation teams.

- Agentic data architecture: designing how data is supplied to multiple cooperating agents.
