Azure Data Engineer focused on scalable ETL, performance and analytics pipelines.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Azure Data Engineer who builds cloud-native ETL/ELT pipelines that improve performance, scalability, and data availability for analytics. I’ve worked across global enterprise projects, partnering with cross-functional teams to turn complex requirements into reliable data workflows.
In my recent roles, I designed and optimized Azure Data Factory pipeline frameworks that reduced latency by 40%. I also implemented Delta Lake optimization strategies in Azure Databricks, achieving 25% faster query execution, while streamlining ingestion to handle 1M+ daily records using Apache Spark and data lake storage.
I focus on the engineering details that make pipelines dependable: robust data models, optimized Spark transformations, and pragmatic performance tuning. I’ve reduced processing time of key BI reports by 10x, and I support team growth through mentoring, code reviews, and defining engineering best practices.
My core toolkit centers on Python, SQL, PySpark, and the Microsoft Azure data stack—Azure Data Factory, Azure Databricks, Azure Data Lake, and Synapse Analytics—along with platforms like Kafka and Delta Lake. I bring a results-driven mindset and a commitment to building data systems teams can confidently scale.
