Data Engineer specializing in AI-powered streaming pipelines and analytics for regulated industries.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Data Engineer with 3+ years of hands-on experience building AI-powered data systems and real-time streaming pipelines across healthcare and financial services. I focus on measurable outcomes—cost savings, faster decisioning, and reliable uptime across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
In my current role, I developed an NL-to-SQL chatbot using Azure OpenAI GPT-4o and Copilot Studio, enabling 50+ finance analysts to query Synapse and get auto-generated Plotly visualizations in Microsoft Teams. I also built AWS Bedrock validation agents that classify and route data quality exceptions, cutting manual review time and improving downstream accuracy, while maintaining 99.9% pipeline uptime.
I’ve engineered end-to-end pipelines for high-volume, time-sensitive workloads—handling 500K+ daily transactions with Kafka and Spark Streaming, and migrating legacy ETL to event-driven serverless architectures with AWS Glue, Lambda, and Step Functions. I bring strong governance and security experience (HIPAA, PCI-DSS, RBAC, encryption, monitoring/alerting) alongside practical tooling like Terraform, CI/CD, and data modeling techniques.
