Data Engineer

At Texas Instruments, you will join a dynamic team where you can make a tangible impact on the future of technology. You will work on high-visibility projects, leveraging TI's vast data ecosystem to drive innovation in AI, machine learning, and large-scale analytics.

As a Data Engineer, you will play a key role in building, maintaining, and optimizing the data infrastructure and systems that power AI/ML, analytics, reporting, and data-driven decision-making across the organization. You will work within cross-functional teams to transform raw, complex datasets into actionable insights, working closely with data scientists, software engineers, and business stakeholders.

In this role, you will move beyond foundational pipelines to assist in architecting and deploying large-scale data engineering solutions. You will contribute to the development of AI-driven data processing frameworks that integrate transformer-based LLMs, deep learning models, and traditional machine learning algorithms to solve complex industrial challenges.
