AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. The EMEA Data Center Capacity Delivery (DCCD) team is seeking a highly motivated and technically skilled Business Intelligence Engineer / Data Scientist / AI Specialist to join our Business and Project Controls function. This is a pivotal role at the intersection of construction delivery, data engineering, and artificial intelligence - supporting the EMEA DCCD team in transforming how we plan, monitor, and control the delivery of hyperscale data center capacity across the region. You will work closely with Construction Managers, Program Managers, Technical Infrastructure Program Managers (TIPMs), and regional leadership to design and deploy intelligent data solutions that provide real-time visibility into project performance, cost, schedule, quality, and risk. You will be the data and AI engine behind our project controls function - turning raw construction data into actionable insights that drive faster, smarter, and more consistent delivery decisions. This is an individual contributor role embedded within the EMEA DCCD Business and Project Controls team, reporting to the EMEA DCCD Business & Project Controls Lead.
Key job responsibilities Business Intelligence & Reporting • Design, develop, and maintain scalable, automated dashboards and reporting systems that provide real-time visibility into EMEA DCCD project performance across cost, schedule, quality, and safety dimensions • Build and maintain BI solutions using Amazon QuickSight, Power BI, or equivalent platforms, tailored to the needs of Construction Managers and senior leadership • Develop leading indicator metrics and KPI frameworks that enable proactive risk identification and data-driven decision-making across the EMEA construction portfolio • Serve as the primary liaison between the Business & Project Controls function and technical data teams, ensuring reporting solutions are aligned to operational needs and business objectives • Produce regular programme-level performance reports and executive summaries, consolidating data from multiple projects and clusters across the EMEA region
Data Engineering & ETL • Build and maintain robust ETL pipelines to ingest, transform, and integrate construction cost, schedule, and quality data from platforms including Procore, BIM 360, Smartsheet, and internal AWS data systems • Design and manage data models and warehousing solutions that support automated reporting and longitudinal trend analysis across the EMEA portfolio • Ensure data integrity, accuracy, and consistency across all reporting systems, establishing data governance standards and best practices within the project controls function • Develop and maintain data pipelines using Python, SQL, and AWS services (S3, Lambda, Glue, Redshift, DynamoDB) to support scalable and repeatable analytics workflows AI & Machine Learning Solutions • Architect and deploy AI-powered applications using Amazon Bedrock, LLMs, and GenAI capabilities to automate and enhance construction project controls processes, including: o Predictive Schedule Analytics: ML models that identify schedule risk signals and forecast milestone slippage before it occurs o Cost Variance Intelligence: AI-driven analysis of change orders, contingency consumption, and budget performance to surface anomalies and trends o Document Quality Automation: AI Vision and multimodal models to validate construction documentation, O&M manuals, warranties, and as-built drawings for completeness and compliance o Automated Reporting Narratives: LLM-based generation of project status summaries and risk commentary from structured project data o Closeout Compliance Automation: Agentic workflows that validate handover documentation against commissioning checklists and contractual requirements • Build and operationalise machine learning models that extract insights from unstructured project documentation, enabling intelligent search, classification, and anomaly detection • Integrate AI capabilities with existing construction technology platforms to create seamless, automated workflows that reduce manual effort and improve data quality
Project Controls Support • Support the Business & Project Controls function in gathering, consolidating, and analysing data across EMEA clusters to produce accurate reporting on scope, schedule, budget, resources, quality, and risk • Develop and maintain construction project control dashboards that integrate traditional project management metrics with AI-generated predictive analytics • Identify gaps in current reporting and process workflows; design and implement intelligent automation solutions to eliminate non-value-add activities and reduce level of effort (LOE) on repetitive tasks • Contribute to the development and continuous improvement of project controls standards, templates, SOPs, and processes across the EMEA DCCD team
Stakeholder Engagement & Change Management • Communicate complex data findings and AI-generated insights clearly and concisely to both technical and non-technical audiences, including senior leadership • Drive adoption of new BI tools, AI solutions, and data-driven workflows across the EMEA Construction team through training, documentation, and hands-on support • Collaborate with global counterparts in AMER and APJC to share best practices, align on data standards, and scale successful solutions across AWS's global construction portfolio • Champion a culture of data-driven decision-making within the EMEA DCCD Business & Project Controls function
A day in the life You will start your day reviewing automated project performance dashboards you have built, identifying any anomalies or risk signals that require attention. You will work with Construction Managers and TIPMs to understand their data needs and translate those needs into scalable reporting and AI solutions. You will spend time developing and refining ML models, building ETL pipelines, and deploying new AI-powered features on Amazon Bedrock. You will present insights to programme leadership, using data to tell a clear story about where the portfolio stands and where risks are emerging. You will collaborate with peers across the global DCCD network to align on data standards and share solutions that can be scaled across regions.
