Senior data engineer specializing in resilient cloud data platforms and cloud migrations.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Data Engineer with 9+ years’ experience building and migrating cloud data platforms, with a strong focus on enterprise data orchestration and reliable data pipelines.
I led the end-to-end migration of enterprise data pipelines from GCP to AWS, including transitioning Cloud Composer to AWS MWAA—successfully migrating 200+ DAGs and 100+ CI/CD pipelines with minimal downtime, plus implementing a disaster recovery strategy.
I design large-scale AWS/GCP cross-cloud architectures and optimize pipeline performance using Apache Airflow, Python, SQL, Snowflake, and dbt. I also enjoy leading teams—guiding junior data engineers—and building frameworks like a configuration-driven Airflow DAG builder to speed up onboarding.
