What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role in a company focused on green energy initiatives, where I can leverage my data engineering skills to drive impactful solutions.

As a Senior Data Engineer with over 8 years of experience, I specialize in designing and implementing scalable Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) processes and automation solutions. My expertise lies in leveraging technologies like Terraform, Kubernetes, and Apache Airflow to optimize data pipelines and workflows for efficient data management. Currently, I am focused on AWS, Snowflake, and DBT technologies, with a strong commitment to enhancing data-driven decision-making.

Throughout my career, I have successfully engineered machine learning models to predict electricity demand, developed a decentralized data architecture, and automated model deployment processes, significantly improving operational efficiency. My role at Landis & Gyr involved collaborating with cross-functional teams to enhance feature delivery cycles and ensure alignment with business requirements. I am passionate about utilizing my advanced knowledge in data engineering to contribute to green energy initiatives and sustainable solutions.
