Job Description Summary

We are seeking an experienced Data Architect who specializes in modernizing enterprise data platforms for the AI era. This role requires someone who deeply understands both traditional data architectures and the emerging requirements of AI systems, with expertise in bridging existing data lakes to support modern AI capabilities like RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation), vector search, and multi-modal AI applications. You'll be the architect who transforms our wealth of structured and unstructured data assets into AI-ready infrastructure.

The ideal candidate will have 10+ years of experience with enterprise data platforms and proven expertise in handling both structured and unstructured data at scale. You understand the complexities of existing data lake architectures and can architect the evolution path to support AI workloads without disrupting current operations.

As a GE Vernova accelerator, GE Vernova Advanced Research is driving strategy and leading research & development efforts to execute on the business's mission to help power the energy transition. We forge the collaborations and help invent the technologies required to electrify and decarbonize for a zero-carbon future.
