What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a senior data engineering role on Azure/Microsoft where I can modernize ETL, improve pipeline reliability and performance, and deliver high-impact reporting with Power BI—while leading technically and collaborating closely with stakeholders.

I’m a senior data engineer with over a decade of experience delivering data solutions end to end—ETL optimization, data integration, and reporting—across multiple industries and international environments. I specialize in building and modernizing data platforms on the Microsoft ecosystem, including Azure Data Factory, Azure Synapse Analytics, Azure SQL, Azure Data Lake, and Microsoft Fabric, with a strong focus on reliable pipelines, performance, and maintainable business logic.

From migrating legacy SQL Server stored-procedure ETL into Azure Synapse with Parquet-based storage to rebuilding logic with Spark SQL and PySpark, I’ve repeatedly owned transformation efforts while preserving functionality. I’ve also led technical delivery, designed medallion-architecture ETL, and built Power BI dashboards and SSRS/SSAS solutions that improve end-user experience and business decision-making, backed by certifications in Microsoft Fabric, Azure Data Engineering, SQL Server, and Power BI.
