What I'm looking for
I am a highly motivated and results-driven professional with over 13 years of hands-on experience in Python and a strong background in data engineering. My career has been marked by a commitment to delivering effective solutions under pressure while maintaining high standards across all projects. I thrive in both independent and team settings, consistently demonstrating ownership and accountability in my work.
Currently, I serve as a Senior Data Engineer at Kwalee Ltd, where I have successfully extracted, transformed, and visualized data from various APIs using tools like Tableau and Looker. My role involves managing Tableau Server hosted on AWS, ensuring uptime, security, and performance. I have also built data pipelines aggregating financial metrics from over 80 ad networks, showcasing my ability to handle and secure sensitive data while maintaining compliance with internal and external requirements.
In addition to my technical skills, I hold a BSc with Honours in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics from the University of Bedfordshire, where I achieved a First. My dissertation focused on developing a remote-controlled disaster robot with advanced object detection capabilities. I am passionate about continuous learning and always eager to embrace new challenges that foster growth and collaboration.
