What I'm looking for

I seek roles building scalable cloud data platforms and ML-enabled analytics, emphasizing automated pipelines, data governance, and collaborative product-driven impact.

I am a Senior Data & Analytics Engineer with 13+ years designing scalable data infrastructure, ELT pipelines, and analytics platforms across logistics, retail, SaaS, and real estate. I combine deep technical expertise across AWS, GCP, Azure, and OCI with business insight to deliver data solutions that accelerate decision-making and operational growth.

I have led projects that reduced manual reporting by 60%, improved onboarding throughput by 25%, and cut documentation effort by 40% using AI-assisted workflows. My experience includes building event-driven ingestion, CI/CD for data workflows, data lineage and governance, and production ML pipelines using tools like dbt, Airflow, Spark, Kafka, Snowflake, BigQuery, and scikit-learn.
