What I'm looking for

I am looking for a mid-level cloud/data engineering role focused on building scalable GCP data pipelines, mentoring teams, and advancing data platform best practices.

I am a Cloud Data Engineer experienced in designing, building, and operating production-grade ETL/ELT pipelines on Google Cloud Platform. I specialize in Apache Airflow orchestration, BigQuery data modeling, and cloud-native architectures that prioritize scalability and reliability.

In my current role I designed and maintained production pipelines using Airflow and GCP services (BigQuery, Cloud Storage, Cloud Functions, Cloud Run), optimized SQL and data schemas, containerized workflows with Docker, and managed secrets with Secret Manager. I also delivered internal technical trainings to engineering teams on Airflow and GCP.

I hold the Google Cloud Professional Data Engineer certification and an Apache Airflow fundamentals certification, and I bring strong practical experience in data warehousing, pipeline orchestration, Python and SQL to help teams turn data into reliable, actionable insights.
