What I'm looking for

I want to build reliable, scalable data platforms—owning ELT/ETL pipelines, data quality, and orchestration—on modern stacks like Azure and Fabric, collaborating with analytics teams to deliver fast, trustworthy insights.

I’m a results-driven Data Engineer with 4 years of experience designing and implementing high-performance data pipelines across Insurance, IoT, Railway System Tracking, Medical, and Finance. I’ve engineered and optimized data workflows, achieving a 30% reduction in processing time and a 20% improvement in data retrieval efficiency, while maintaining 99.9% data availability for business-critical operations.

In my recent work, I’ve migrated multi-company projects from SQL Server/SSIS into Snowflake using DBT and orchestrated workflows with Argo, implemented Medallion architecture for more reliable orchestration, and added DBT data tests to protect data quality. I also led a transition from an Azure stack to Microsoft Fabric (OneLake), built a centralized data warehouse as a single source of truth, created reporting data marts, and set up CI/CD with Git for consistent, reliable deployments.
