What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges my skills in data architecture and allows for continuous learning and growth in cloud technologies.

I am a Senior Data Architect with extensive experience in designing and implementing scalable data architectures across AWS, Azure, and GCP. My work has significantly improved data accessibility and processing efficiency, allowing organizations to leverage their data for informed decision-making. I have a proven track record of optimizing data models and enhancing query performance, achieving a 30% improvement in efficiency while ensuring scalability for large datasets.

Throughout my career, I have led data warehouse migrations and integrated automated ETL/ELT processes, which have reduced manual intervention and processing errors. My commitment to data governance and security has been instrumental in developing frameworks that minimize regulatory risks. I take pride in mentoring teams of data engineers and analysts, promoting best practices in data modeling and cloud data management, and providing technical guidance that has reduced complex query execution times by 25%.
