At Novigo Solutions, I migrated a Saudi retail group from Azure Synapse to Azure Databricks as part of a 10-developer team, helping reduce its largest company's monthly cost from about $40K to $27K. I also helped build a reusable Unity Catalog medallion framework that onboarded about 1,500 tables across three group companies.

I delivered one company's data platform end to end, building a star schema that feeds six Power BI reports and scheduling its Databricks jobs. I also built client demos for retail decision support and voice AI, and earlier at Infosys Ltd I engineered Azure ETL solutions using PySpark and SQL.
