Job Summary
This hybrid data engineering and data architecture role focuses on designing and operating scalable data platforms that power machine learning solutions for hotel domain use cases. The candidate will build and optimize pipelines orchestrate ML Ops workflows on Google Vertex AI and ensure high quality data for predictive models that drive hotel revenue guest experience and operational efficiency across an international enterprise.
Responsibilities
- Design robust data architectures that unify hotel operational reservation loyalty and pricing data into scalable models that support advanced analytics and machine learning across the enterprise.
- Develop efficient data pipelines that ingest transform and validate hotel domain data to create reliable feature stores optimized for training and serving models in Google Vertex AI environments.
- Implement ML Ops practices that automate model training validation deployment and monitoring so that hotel related machine learning solutions remain accurate reliable and compliant with enterprise standards.
- Configure and manage Vertex AI workflows that orchestrate end to end machine learning lifecycles including data preparation experimentation hyperparameter tuning and model promotion to production for hotel use cases.
- Optimize data storage strategies for structured and unstructured hotel data so that analytical queries and real time scoring workloads achieve consistent performance and cost efficiency in hybrid cloud settings.
- Collaborate with data scientists to translate hotel specific analytical requirements into production ready data assets and deployment patterns that enable rapid experimentation and safe rollout of new models.
- Establish rigorous data quality rules and monitoring that continuously evaluate hotel data feeds such as bookings inventory rates and guest profiles to reduce downstream model drift and operational incidents.
- Create reusable patterns and templates for ML Ops including versioning logging alerting and rollback mechanisms that simplify ongoing support of hotel focused machine learning services.
- Document data models pipelines and ML Ops processes in accessible formats so that product operations and analytics teams can understand dependencies and safely evolve hotel domain solutions over time.
- Partner with hotel business stakeholders to identify high impact data and machine learning opportunities that improve occupancy optimize pricing reduce cancellations and enhance guest satisfaction metrics.
- Ensure compliance with data governance and privacy guidelines when handling guest and transaction records so that hotel machine learning applications maintain trust and meet regulatory expectations.
- Support hybrid work collaboration by using shared tools clear communication practices and scheduled touchpoints that keep distributed teams aligned on hotel data platform priorities and delivery timelines.
- Monitor production workloads during day shifts and coordinate planned maintenance windows so that hotel systems experience minimal disruption while data and model improvements are introduced.
Qualifications
- Combine practical experience in Google Vertex AI with strong understanding of ML Ops concepts to design maintainable workflows that scale across multiple hotel related machine learning projects.
- Apply solid knowledge of machine learning fundamentals including feature engineering evaluation metrics and model lifecycle management to deliver dependable solutions in hotel business contexts.
- Demonstrate hands on data engineering proficiency with batch and near real time processing so that hotel transaction streams and operational feeds are consistently available for analytics and models.
- Bring proven background working within hotel or hospitality domain environments where data is used to drive revenue management guest personalization or operational optimization outcomes.
- Utilize strong analytical and problem solving abilities to diagnose data pipeline issues assess model performance in hotel scenarios and implement targeted improvements that enhance business value.
- Leverage clear communication and stakeholder engagement skills to explain complex data and machine learning concepts in simple terms that support decision making across hotel operations and technology teams.
