What I'm looking for

I seek challenging roles building scalable, secure cloud data platforms and Lakehouse architectures with strong emphasis on governance, AI/ML enablement, and team mentorship.

I am a results-driven Senior Data Engineer with 5+ years building and scaling cloud data platforms, enterprise data warehouses, and AI-ready ecosystems across healthcare, finance, insurance, and retail. I design batch, real-time, and event-driven pipelines on Azure, AWS, and GCP using Databricks, Snowflake, Delta Lake, and Lakehouse architectures while enforcing data governance and compliance (HIPAA, SOX).

I have delivered large-scale projects—integrating 50M+ records, processing 10TB+ daily transactional data, and enabling predictive analytics—while optimizing performance, automating CI/CD, and mentoring junior engineers. I bring hands-on expertise in Python, PySpark, SQL, ML/LLM integrations, RAG pipelines, Infrastructure-as-Code, and cost/governance-minded cloud architecture.
