ABOUT THE ROLE

The Senior Data Engineer - Reporting Automation & AI designs, develops, and maintains automated reporting solutions that improve the efficiency, accuracy, and scalability of risk-reporting processes. This role combines reporting automation, AI-enabled workflows, application development, and technical problem solving to modernize legacy processes and support future-state reporting platforms.

The successful candidate will work closely with risk-reporting teams to translate manual, fragmented processes into reliable automated pipelines. This person will serve as the technical bridge between raw risk data and the accurate, timely reports stakeholders rely on.

This is a net-new hybrid role based in Downtown Chicago. The successful candidate will work from the Chicago office 3 days per week, with Tuesday as a required in-office day.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Design, develop, and maintain automated reporting solutions that improve the efficiency, accuracy, and scalability of risk-reporting processes.
  • Build and integrate AI-enabled workflows that streamline data preparation, validation, and report generation.
  • Develop and maintain Python and Shell applications and scripts that support reporting automation, monitor system health, and improve operational reliability.
  • Modernize manual and legacy reporting processes into scalable automated pipelines, including migration from SAS-based processes to Anaconda and Python-based solutions.
  • Design optimized data marts and star schemas for Power BI consumption.
  • Develop and tune SQL queries to deliver accurate, high-performing risk-reporting outputs.
  • Partner with data-reporting teams to ensure data structures and outputs support effective reporting and visualization.
  • Communicate technical ideas, tradeoffs, and solutions clearly to technical stakeholders.

SKILLS AND QUALIFICATIONS:

  • 4+ years of hands-on professional work experience in reporting automation or data development, including advanced SQL with complex views, stored procedures, and performance tuning.
  • 2+ years of experience using both Python and Shell scripting to automate reporting workflows and build supporting applications.
  • 2+ years of experience integrating AI functionality into existing processes through APIs or comparable AI-enabled workflow tooling.
  • 1 year of experience with Power BI and Power Query.
  • 1 year of experience using Git for version control.
  • 3+years of experience with dimensional modeling and modern data-warehouse concepts.
  • Experience modernizing legacy reporting or data processes; SAS-to-Python migration experience is strongly preferred.
  • Ability to work independently, take initiative, and manage technical work with limited day-to-day direction.
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills, including the ability to work effectively with data-reporting teams and explain technical ideas concisely.

WHAT THE SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATE WILL TACKLE

During the first several months, the successful candidate will build familiarity with the existing code, risk data, and reporting processes.

This person will help advance data and code migration away from SAS and toward Anaconda- and Python-based solutions while improving the reliability and automation of reporting workflows.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
