CanadaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a BI Developer / Application Developer who builds end-to-end analytics workflows with Python and SQL—extracting, cleaning, validating, and transforming operational data so teams can make faster decisions. At Explore Edmonton Corporation, I engineered a Python ETL pipeline to automate 2,000+ weekly shift records and reduce payroll processing time by 40%.
I also deliver executive-ready reporting by connecting reliable datasets to Power BI—building datasets, DAX calculations, and Power Query transformations to reduce manual reporting overhead by 60%. I integrate REST and SOAP APIs, investigate data quality across sources to resolve issues, and document transformation logic for transparency and maintainability.
