I design secure multi-cloud data and AI platforms across AWS and Azure.
What I'm looking for
At XpertGroup, I design and implement scalable cloud-native Data and AI architectures across Azure and AWS, defining multicloud standards, reference architectures, and delivery patterns.
Previously at DataKnow and Vodac, I built enterprise data platforms and production ETL pipelines using Microsoft Fabric, Azure Data Factory, Synapse Analytics, AWS Glue, Databricks, S3, and Redshift. I've also delivered streaming and serverless solutions with Amazon Kinesis and AWS Lambda while automating workflows with Apache Airflow.
I focus on architectures that balance innovation, simplicity, security, and measurable business impact. I'm pursuing a Master's in Artificial Intelligence while continuing to deepen my AWS and Microsoft expertise.
