Lead Data Engineer delivering scalable cloud-native lakehouse platforms and real-time analytics.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven Lead Data Engineer with 10+ years designing and delivering enterprise-grade data platforms across healthcare, finance, and cloud-native environments. I modernize legacy systems into cloud-based lakehouse architectures (AWS, Azure, GCP, Snowflake), build ETL/ELT and streaming pipelines, and implement governance and security to meet HIPAA, GDPR and SOC 2 requirements.
I've led teams to build high-throughput event-driven systems (Kafka, Spark, Flink) and observability/FinOps frameworks that cut costs and improve analytics adoption. I mentor engineers, drive architecture reviews, and deliver analytics-ready data models, BI solutions, and production-ready ML feature pipelines that enable faster insights and measurable business outcomes.
