Automation and solutions engineer delivering scalable, production-ready data systems.
CanadaWhat I'm looking for
I’m an automation and solutions engineering professional with 10+ years of experience across investment operations and enterprise technology. I develop, support, and scale automation solutions that reduce operational disruption while improving data quality and control.
I build enterprise automation and ETL solutions using Python, SQL, VBA, and Angular, partnering directly with end users to gather requirements, design effective solutions, and execute testing and regression testing. I also transform structured and semi-structured data (JSON, XML) into reporting-ready datasets for business users, ensuring stability through production support and troubleshooting.
I bring strong AWS exposure through S3, Athena, Airflow, Databricks, and Analytical Workbench (AWB), and I’ve consistently improved workflows across investment workflows and finance analytics. I’m especially proud of replacing manual operational processes, delivering over 4,000 hours of annualized time savings, and leveraging company-approved AI tools to accelerate development and documentation.
