What I'm looking for

I seek senior data architecture or platform roles where I can lead cloud-native data platform design, mentor teams, and deliver scalable, governed data solutions that accelerate analytics and ML.

I am a Senior Data Engineer and Architect with over a decade designing and building scalable, high-performance data platforms for analytical and operational workloads.

I architect cloud-native ecosystems across AWS, GCP, and Azure, leveraging Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery and Redshift to enable BI and ML at scale.

My hands-on expertise includes Apache Spark, Kafka, Python, SQL and real-time streaming, and I have led teams to implement DataOps, CI/CD and robust data governance frameworks.

I deliver measurable outcomes — from reducing pipeline latency and release cycles to implementing data quality frameworks and mentoring engineering teams to improve delivery and reliability.
