John Fisher is a Data & Analytics executive with 25+ years of experience leading cloud modernization and data engineering.
What I'm looking for
At American Commercial Barge Line, I lead the migration from an Oracle data warehouse to Azure Data Lake, enabling self-service Power BI analytics through Azure Data Factory and Synapse Analytics.
I architect Microsoft Fabric workloads, build tools for customer-level margin analysis and operational forecasting, and establish Azure DevOps reporting and CI/CD pipelines. I also lead and mentor four data engineers while managing key data-infrastructure vendors.
Previously at Bronson Healthcare Group, I directed enterprise data warehouse architecture and helped implement Epic EHR across seven certified modules. I built Azure Databricks and Jupyter Notebook machine-learning models for patient mortality trends, expanded data ingestion through REST APIs and Python automation, and supported Epic Clarity and Caboodle environments.
Across healthcare, logistics, and enterprise IT, I’ve built cloud, data, infrastructure, reporting, and clinical workflow solutions that improve access to reliable information and modernize operations.
