Advanced Data Pipeline Development for Real-Time Autonomous Vehicle Analytics

In the rapidly evolving field of autonomous vehicles, real-time data processing and analytics are critical for operational efficiency and safety. We are a growing company seeking to enhance our data infrastructure to better support our fleet's data needs. Our goal is to develop an advanced data pipeline that can handle vast amounts of vehicle data in real-time, allowing us to improve decision-making and operational insights. This project will involve setting up and optimizing an Apache Kafka event streaming platform, integrating Apache Spark for real-time analytics, and utilizing Airflow for workflow automation. Additionally, we aim to implement dbt for data transformation and leverage Snowflake or BigQuery for scalable data warehousing solutions. By incorporating MLOps practices, we seek to streamline our machine learning model deployment and monitoring. This initiative is urgent given the competitive landscape of the autonomous vehicle industry, where real-time data processing can significantly enhance our market position.
