DevOps & Data Platform Engineer building AML systems and production lakehouses on Kubernetes.
What I'm looking for
At Confidential, I build AML and financial crime compliance flows around Oracle FCCM and FLEXCUBE, including transaction monitoring, alert scoring, screening, and case management.
I designed and deployed a production lakehouse on Apache Iceberg with a PostgreSQL catalog on MinIO. Oracle-to-staging-to-UDM pipelines run through Airflow and Dagster, with Trino for distributed SQL and dbt transformation layers.
I provisioned production Kubernetes clusters from bare metal, including a fully air-gapped RHEL cluster with a private registry. I also containerized services with Docker and containerd and deployed high-availability PostgreSQL.
My work spans data models, infrastructure, and compliance requirements. I make system design trade-offs and build for scalability, lineage, and auditability.
