What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build scalable, reliable cloud data platforms and pipelines where I can improve data quality, automation, and analytics access while collaborating across engineering teams.

I've built production data pipelines across AWS, Snowflake, GCP, PostgreSQL, and BigQuery, turning high-volume operational data into reliable analytics-ready datasets.

At Federated Engineers, I automate Terraform deployment workflows with Atlantis and run containerized data platforms on Kubernetes, including Apache Airflow, ArgoCD, and Airbyte. I also designed ELT pipelines moving Supabase data into an Amazon S3 data lake and strengthened cloud governance through IAM policies, lifecycle rules, and CI/CD quality gates.

As a freelance Data Engineer, I delivered an ELT pipeline processing 500K+ daily records, cutting manual processing from six hours to 30 minutes. I built a partitioned S3 data lake, integrated Snowflake loading that reduced load time from 45 to 8 minutes, and used Airflow, dbt, Docker, GitHub Actions, and Terraform for dependable delivery.

At Data Science Nigeria, I helped build the Edo State MSME Databank for over 10,000 small businesses and co-engineered a farmer credit-scoring model that improved loan approval efficiency by 30%. I bring the same practical focus to data governance, scalable infrastructure, and data products that support real decisions.
