So, what’s the role all about?

As a NiCE AI Data Engineer you are responsible for supporting the use of the NiCE Interaction Analytics (NIA) product suite to prove out business use cases as part of Proofs of Concepts (POCs).  The POC is used to support the NiCE sales efforts to demonstrate the value of the NIA product suite.  In this capacity, you will work with the NiCE sales team to obtain unstructured Customer Experience (CX) interactions (audio, chats, emails, social media, etc.) from customers and transform the interactions into a format that can be processed by the NIA product suite.  You will act as an Interaction Analytics data expert who understands key data development and the impact of downstream cases and value to be derived from having data generated from unstructured interactions.  You will partner closely with the Customer Engagement Analytics (CEA) Research, Product and Services teams blending your data expertise with best-in-class technology advancements and client insights to accomplish the team’s objectives.  

AI Data Engineers are experts in the value derived from unstructured CX interactions. It is that expertise, along with technical fluency, that allow the Business Consulting team to build scalable, out of the box data structures that reveal operational and measurable outcomes. The responsibilities for this role includes the development of the underlying data structures, along with the ability to understand new and evolving client requests for improvement and the ability to incorporate those needs into a successful build and execution plan for each POC.

The ideal candidate is intellectually inquisitive, with strong communication, organization, analytical and technical capabilities.  As a self-starter, they are not afraid to roll up their sleeves to learn and validate evolving toolsets while maintaining focus on what success looks like with our ultimate goals for data solutions.  As they gain and maintain system and data expertise, the roll will continue to open up for direct client interactions, feedback capture and build plans.

How will you make an impact?  

• Serve as the focal point for managing the delivery of CX interactions and corresponding metadata utilizing various data delivery methods.
• Serve as the focal point for the development of pre-defined data structures for automated analysis of large sets of CX interactions across all channels (audio, chat, email, social, etc.).  This includes:

  • Manipulation of CX transcripts
• Utilize evolving tools from Research that support the development of the data structures.
• Provide feedback to the Research and Product teams on how we continue to evolve tooling and data integration with CEA products.

• Educate field teams (Consulting and Customer Success) on data solutions, definitions, best practices, etc.
• Provide input on the use of developed data models for both Product and Field teams to optimize the use of developed data assets.
• As the Enlighten AI team is focused on Data Innovation, team members may be asked to support other projects, solutions and/or deployments using other Enlighten AI solutions.
• Manage the utilization of the CX Proof of Concept (POC) VM servers.
