We’re hiring an AI Data Engineer to turn 3D assets and visuals into high-quality datasets for next-gen AI in digital play. Own the full data pipeline and help build scalable, creative systems at the crossroads of AI, data, and fun
RESPONSIBILITIES
Design and operate data ingestion pipelines for 3D assets, geometry, images, video, and scans.
Build and optimize 3D asset preparation flows, including mesh cleanup, normalization, UVs/LODs, and voxel/point-cloud conversions.
Implement labeling and QA workflows, manage external annotation vendors, and automate quality checks to ensure scalable, reliable datasets.
Define schemas and metadata for digital assets, maintaining catalogues, lineage, and versioning to ensure reproducibility and governance.
Enforce data quality, drift detection, and compliance (GDPR/COPPA), including watermarking and traceability to safeguard IP and user privacy.
Collaborate with AI infrastructure engineers to optimize data storage and compute performance for large-scale processing.
Work with AI engineers to define data specifications, support experimentation, and integrate active learning loops that improve AI models over time.
REQUIREMENTS
2 years of proven experience in data engineering for ML/AI, with strong proficiency in Python, SQL, and distributed data processing (e.g., PySpark).
Hands-on experience with cloud data platforms (GCP, AWS, or Azure), orchestration frameworks (e.g., Airflow), and ELT/ETL tools.
Familiarity with 2D and 3D data formats (e.g., OBJ, FBX, glTF), point clouds, and large-scale computer vision datasets-or the ability to quickly upskill in 3D data workflows.
Knowledge of data versioning and quality management tools (e.g., Git/Perforce, DVC) and structured storage systems (XML, JSON, databases).
Strong understanding of privacy-by-design, security, and data compliance (GDPR/COPPA).
A builder’s mindset-able to prototype quickly, iterate efficiently, and document clearly.
High attention to detail, with commitment to brand integrity, safety, and privacy.
Excellent cross-functional communication skills; comfortable collaborating with creative, technical, and legal teams.
NICE TO HAVE
Experience with Blender scripting, photogrammetry, or NeRF dataset prep.
Familiarity with Unity or Unreal Engine pipelines.
Understanding of active learning or data augmentation for AI.
