NamibiaWhat I'm looking for
My Airbnb Analytics Engineering project moves raw booking, listing, and host data into Snowflake, then transforms it with dbt into curated models for a Tableau Public dashboard. I also built a market-data pipeline using Python, Airflow, MinIO, PostgreSQL, and dbt.
At Skorpion Zinc – Vedanta Zinc International, I supported business applications and information systems in an industrial zinc-refinery environment. My earlier work included technical design at Sat-Com R&D and telecommunications implementation coordination at Sat-Com Cellular; I’m now seeking opportunities in data and analytics.
