I am a Lead Data Engineer & Cloud Solution Architect driving streaming lakehouse.
What I'm looking for
I am a Lead Data Engineer and Cloud Solution Architect with 11+ years designing enterprise-scale data platforms across AWS, Azure, and GCP. I build real-time streaming pipelines, modern ETL/ELT workflows, and scalable lakehouse solutions that power analytics and AI while mentoring teams and aligning technical execution with business strategy.
I've delivered HIPAA-compliant healthcare platforms and multi-cloud financial lakehouses that process billions of events daily, improving proactive interventions by 22%, achieving 99.8% dashboard accuracy, and reducing transformation costs by up to 40%. I specialize in cloud migrations, architecture modernization, observability and governance frameworks that cut runtimes from hours to minutes and lower infrastructure costs.
