Data Engineer with expertise in scalable data ingestion and analytics.
What I'm looking for
I am a Data Engineer with over 3 years of experience in designing and building scalable ingestion pipelines and Spark-based ETL frameworks across AWS and Azure cloud platforms. My specialization in healthcare data engineering and governance has equipped me with hands-on experience in tools such as AWS Glue, Azure Data Factory, Databricks, and Snowflake. I have a proven track record of collaborating in Agile teams to deliver production-grade pipelines, optimize data transformation logic, and support downstream analytics using Power BI and Tableau.
At Cigna Healthcare, I orchestrated scalable data ingestion pipelines that processed 5TB of clinical and claims data daily, improving reporting accuracy by 15%. My role involved building CI/CD-enabled Airflow DAGs and enhancing dashboards for clinical teams. Previously, at TATA Consultancy Services, I created optimized Spark-based ingestion connectors and reduced pipeline deployment time by 75%. My commitment to data quality and integrity has consistently driven successful project outcomes.
