I build governed cloud data platforms and AI automation for life sciences.
What I'm looking for
At GSK through Accenture, I own the technical direction of a Veeva Regulatory Vault consumption platform supporting submissions across 180+ countries. I lead architecture, release strategy, PI Planning, and six zero-downtime production releases each year.
I’ve engineered pipelines for 250+ Vault objects, up to 1.2 billion rows, and 8M+ regulatory documents across Azure Databricks, Snowflake, ADF, ADLS Gen2, and Denodo. I also built an MCP server and Agentic AI workflows for regulatory data reuse, compliance checks, and Health Authority response preparation.
Previously, I modernised clinical-trial workloads by converting 1M+ lines of Python to PySpark, cutting runtime by 79%, and led data platform delivery across manufacturing, automotive, shipping, and logistics. I bring hands-on data engineering, governance, CI/CD, and technical mentoring, backed by Microsoft and Databricks certifications and the Accenture Apex Award.
