What I'm looking for

I seek a role building and scaling cloud-native data platforms with strong DataOps, governance, and mentorship opportunities in regulated or enterprise environments.

I am a Senior Data Engineer with 8+ years designing scalable cloud-native data platforms, enterprise data warehouses, and real-time streaming architectures focused on analytics-ready solutions.

I build and optimize ETL/ELT pipelines using Databricks, Apache Spark, Airflow, Kafka, Snowflake, and AWS services, and I implement medallion/lakehouse patterns to deliver reliable, governed datasets for BI and ML.

I have hands-on experience in healthcare and regulated environments (HIPAA-aligned), implementing data governance, PII masking, lineage, and secure access controls while mentoring teams and modernizing legacy systems.

I prioritize DataOps automation, cost-optimized cloud infrastructure, observability, and performance tuning to produce production-ready platforms that support reporting, analytics, and machine learning.
