What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a senior role building scalable, cloud-native data platforms and real-time streaming systems where I can lead engineering efforts, mentor teams, and deliver observable, production-grade data infrastructure for analytics and ML.

I am a versatile, results-driven data engineer with 12+ years designing and optimizing cloud-native data infrastructure for analytics and machine learning.

I build real-time data pipelines and scalable ETL workflows using Spark, Kafka, Flink, Airflow, and dbt, and have led migrations to Databricks Lakehouse and centralized BI on Snowflake to improve processing time and analytics responsiveness.

I design and provision cloud infrastructure with Terraform and CI/CD, implement observability via Prometheus/Grafana/ELK, and have mentored engineers while instituting Agile practices to raise team delivery standards.

I am passionate about turning raw data into actionable insights and enabling reliable, production-grade data platforms that support analytics, BI, and ML at scale.
