@njeff
I am a Senior Data Engineer and Cloud Architect specializing in scalable, AI-driven data platforms.
United StatesI am a Senior Data Engineer and Architect with over 10 years delivering scalable, cloud-native data solutions across AWS, Azure, and GCP. I build real-time and batch ETL/ELT pipelines and design AI-driven platforms that enable advanced analytics.
At Cigna and prior roles I designed platforms using Snowflake, Spark, Delta Lake, Kafka and CDC, reducing compute costs by 35% and improving processing speeds by 40% in earlier positions. I partner closely with ML teams to productionize models using MLflow and SageMaker and integrate feature pipelines for reliable inference.
I lead data governance, lineage, and cataloging efforts with Collibra and Monte Carlo to ensure compliance with GDPR, SOC2, and HIPAA while improving discoverability and auditability. I automate data infrastructure with Terraform, Docker, and Kubernetes and optimize query performance through partitioning, indexing and caching.
I enjoy mentoring teams, fostering cross-functional collaboration, and delivering executive dashboards that drive strategic decisions. I seek opportunities to lead platform engineering, MLOps integration, and governance to create secure, high-performing data ecosystems.
