What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build reliable, scalable data platforms—designing ETL/ELT pipelines, optimizing databases, and delivering cloud-native analytics. I want to bridge software engineering and modern analytics engineering in an environment that values production-grade quality.

I’m a Senior Data Engineer with 7+ years of experience building scalable data platforms, ETL/ELT pipelines, and enterprise systems. I design distributed data processing solutions using Databricks, Spark, dbt, Python, and SQL to support analytics, reporting, and operational workloads.

I focus on production-grade reliability by combining data engineering and backend engineering practices—optimizing SQL performance, automating data cleaning and normalization, and delivering cloud-native solutions. I’ve also built operational analytics dashboards using Power BI and Chart.js.

Earlier in my career, I led database administration in Azure with geo-replication, backup automation, and disaster recovery, then moved into software and systems integration work across ERP/EDRMS, API integrations, and data migration initiatives. I bring a strong background in API integrations, OAuth security, and AI-assisted workflows using LangChain and AI APIs.
