Alessandro Meli
@alessandromeli
Senior data engineer transforming insurance data with scalable ETL/ELT and governance.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Data Engineer with extensive experience in financial and insurance services, specializing in the design and optimization of complex ETL/ELT pipelines and cloud-based data architectures. I focus on delivering scalable, data-driven solutions in international environments while keeping Data Governance at a consistently high standard.
At Phoenix Contact, I’m part of the global HR IT team and a technical leader for Snowflake, using dbt to drive data transformation. I’m leading the transition to modular ELT processes to improve data availability and scalability, and I constructed a Mart layer to expose data to Microstrategy for visualization.
Previously at AdmiralEurope Tech, I designed the data architecture for a regulation database and owned technical execution for a claims database. I also coordinated with the MLOps team on the best solutions to implement, while reviewing and writing data governance documentation and maintaining governance in Collibra.
Earlier in my career at Keyrus Spain and JUSTBS, I gathered functional requirements and translated them into technical specifications for major insurance stakeholders. I developed and optimized ETL processes with Informatica PowerCenter, Oracle, and AWS Redshift, and built Tableau dashboards and metadata repositories—strengthening my analytical mindset and end-to-end delivery discipline.
