GhanaWhat I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Data Engineer with a strong background in information technology and a specialization in information security. My journey began at the University of Ghana, where I earned my Bachelor of Science in Information Technology. Since then, I have honed my skills in data engineering, particularly in designing and implementing data pipelines that enhance trading accuracy and support machine learning models.
At Calculus Solutions, I successfully boosted trading accuracy by developing robust data infrastructures using C++, Python, and PostgreSQL. My collaborative efforts with software developers and data scientists have led to improved system efficiency and seamless integration of data solutions into various platforms. I take pride in my ability to maintain high system availability and ensure data quality through meticulous validation and cleansing processes.
In my previous roles, I have demonstrated strong project management skills, particularly as a Projects Manager at the Bureau of Market & Social Research, where I drove digital transformation initiatives. My experience as a Programming Instructor further solidified my passion for teaching and mentoring others in the field of technology. I am eager to leverage my skills and experiences to contribute to innovative projects in a dynamic work environment.
