What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build and lead cloud-native data platforms that power analytics, machine learning, and product use cases, with strong emphasis on scalable architecture, real-time systems, governance, reliability, and cost-aware engineering.

At Eemedix, I design and operate a cloud-native lakehouse platform with Databricks, Delta Lake, and Apache Kafka for multi-tenant SaaS analytics and product use cases. I build real-time event-driven pipelines with AWS Lambda, Amazon Kinesis, and Spark Streaming, while modernizing legacy ETL into scalable dbt and Snowflake ELT frameworks.

Previously at RetailMetrix, I architected retail analytics platforms using Apache Spark, Apache Flink, Snowflake, Kafka, and Delta Live Tables. I led cross-functional engineering squads and established data quality, observability, and domain-oriented modeling practices for merchandising, inventory, and supply-chain teams.

At Cohere Health and CoastPay, I built HIPAA-compliant healthcare pipelines and secure financial transaction platforms. My work covered HL7, FHIR, EHR data, fraud detection, payment reconciliation, machine learning pipelines, data governance, and regulatory reporting.

I focus on reliable, governed data systems that balance performance, cost, and long-term maintainability. I've delivered lakehouse modernization, real-time streaming, healthcare interoperability, and fraud analytics solutions across AWS, GCP, and Azure.
