What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own Python/SQL data integration pipelines, tackle complex data quality issues, and collaborate across teams to build scalable, secure workflows—while continuing to grow my architecture and distributed systems expertise.

I’m a Data Integration Engineer II focused on building reliable Python/SQL data integration pipelines that improve data accuracy and reduce processing time. I resolve complex data issues with strong technical problem-solving and attention to detail to ensure data fidelity.

Previously, I worked as a Senior Data Engineer, developing large-scale pipelines with Apache Beam and Apache Spark to process millions of records daily. I designed data architectures using microservices and event-driven patterns, deployed with Docker and Kubernetes, and strengthened governance with Apache Knox and Apache Ranger. I also lead and support junior teammates, collaborating cross-functionally to implement secure, well-tested data workflows.
