What I'm looking for

I want to build and optimize scalable, secure data platforms on GCP—owning data models and ETL, improving data quality, and driving cost-efficient performance while collaborating with teams that value best practices.

I’m an Electronic Engineer turned Data Engineering professional, specialized in Google Cloud Platform (GCP). I use data to generate actionable insights and solve complex business problems, with a strong focus on data processing, storage, and scalability.

At NTT DATA Europe & Latam, I led the migration of complex data models from SAP to GCP using Google Cloud Platform tools. I designed and implemented data models aligned with technical and functional requirements, and I established standardized best practices to improve resource optimization and cost efficiency.

Previously, I built and maintained ETL pipelines and supported data integration and transformation, including managing CRM data using Creatio. I also delivered customer-focused support as a Support Specialist, configuring security in GCP, running performance monitoring, cleaning data in BigQuery/DataPrep, and creating dashboards with Data Studio.
