Naresh Chaudhary
@nareshchaudhary
Senior Data Engineer modernizing healthcare and enterprise data platforms with cloud ETL/ELT, lakehouse, and real-time pipelines.
What I'm looking for
I’ve built and modernized enterprise data platforms at Highmark Health, leading migrations to GCP with BigQuery, Snowflake, Databricks, and Cloud Storage. I designed scalable ETL/ELT workflows and standardized a Databricks Delta Lake medallion architecture so teams could trust and reuse analytics-ready datasets.
Before that, at Pfizer, I consolidated clinical and supply chain data into a lakehouse using Databricks, Delta Lake, Amazon S3, and Snowflake. I also accelerated onboarding with metadata-driven frameworks, orchestrated end-to-end pipelines with Airflow (MWAA), and delivered real-time and batch ingestion with Kinesis, Lambda, and Kafka while optimizing query performance.
Earlier in my career, I supported cloud-first reporting at Bank of America and developed Python utilities and data processing scripts at Deloitte—automating cleansing, transformations, and validation, plus building robust batch workflows with Spark, Hive, and Hadoop.
