Senior analytics engineer with 8+ years turning multi-source data into governed, tested, decision-ready models. dbt, SQL, Spark, Power BI.
What I'm looking for
I am a senior analytics engineer with over eight years of experience owning the transformation and modeling layer that turns messy, multi-source operational data into governed, tested, decision-ready datasets.
I build medallion architectures on Microsoft Fabric and Databricks, modular SQL and dbt models with automated testing and documentation, dimensional models, and governed Power BI semantic layers. I work day to day in SQL, PySpark, and orchestration with Airflow and Prefect, and I apply software engineering practices like version control, CI/CD, and data contracts to keep analytics reliable and reproducible.
I partner closely with analysts, product, and business teams to ship reproducible end-to-end pipelines and translate complex data into plain-language insight. Much of my work has run across several large-scale data platforms delivered concurrently in high-governance environments.
My work has supported demand forecasting, stock-out prediction, vendor and credit scoring, and NLP-driven self-service analytics. I bring an ML and forecasting background, including LightGBM, time-series methods, and GPT-based tooling, to strengthen the data products I build, while keeping reliable, well-modeled data at the core.
