What I'm looking for

Iโ€™m looking for a role where I can architect Snowflake/Databricks data platforms that power production GenAIโ€”building agentic RAG, MCP tool layers, and governed semantic models with strong observability and measurable outcomes.

I build ๐’Ž๐’๐’…๐’†๐’“๐’ ๐’…๐’‚๐’•๐’‚ ๐’‘๐’๐’‚๐’•๐’‡๐’๐’“๐’Ž๐’” and ๐’‘๐’“๐’๐’…๐’–๐’„๐’•๐’Š๐’๐’-๐’ˆ๐’“๐’‚๐’…๐’† ๐‘จ๐‘ฐ ๐’‚๐’ˆ๐’†๐’๐’• ๐’”๐’š๐’”๐’•๐’†๐’Ž๐’” that turn messy enterprise data into reliable insights and grounded automation. Most AI projects die between the demo and production - the agent hallucinates, RAG drifts, and the underlying data was never trustworthy. I fix the foundation so AI actually ships.
