What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead DataOps and cloud infrastructure work, improve data quality, and accelerate ML delivery within collaborative, growth-oriented teams.

I am a data engineer and DataOps practitioner with hands-on experience building cloud infrastructure, implementing data governance, and accelerating ML delivery. I led initiatives that reduced time-to-market by eight months and cut deployment time by half using Kubernetes.

My background includes designing modular ETL with Dagster, optimizing data integration for production ML workflows, and improving data quality through validation procedures. I combine advanced Python and SQL skills with cloud and DevOps tooling to deliver reliable, automated data platforms.

I prioritize clear documentation, role-based access controls, and observability to foster ownership and operational efficiency. I enjoy solving infrastructure and pipeline challenges that enable teams to ship models and analytics faster and more safely.
