Lead Data Engineer delivering scalable, production-grade data and IoT platforms.
CanadaWhat I'm looking for
I am a results-driven Lead Data Engineer with two decades of experience designing and delivering high-quality software solutions for mining and manufacturing sectors.
I specialize in building scalable data pipelines and microservices for AI-powered IoT platforms, with hands-on ownership of end-to-end projects and multi-site deployments.
My technical focus spans open-source technologies and the full data stack — from embedded and edge systems through Kafka/Redpanda and TimescaleDB to BI and reporting — and I champion engineering best practices like CI/CD, test automation and on-prem deployments.
I am customer-focused, experienced in remote collaboration, and committed to continuous learning and operational excellence to drive measurable outcomes such as reduced energy use and improved safety.
