Senior Data Engineer building HIPAA-ready AWS/Azure data lakehouse platforms and streaming ETL pipelines.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
At CVS Health, I architected and maintained a HIPAA-compliant enterprise data lakehouse on AWS using Amazon S3, EMR, Delta Lake, Spark SQL, PySpark, and Python—supporting batch and near real-time processing of 20+ TB of healthcare claims, eligibility, provider, and pharmacy data monthly.
I’ve built scalable ingestion and transformation frameworks with AWS Glue, Databricks, Spark Structured Streaming, dbt, and Snowflake, including Medallion (Bronze/Silver/Gold) patterns across 15+ healthcare domains. I also delivered event-driven streaming with Kinesis, Lambda, and Step Functions to get sub-hour processing and built AI-ready RAG pipelines.
Across CVS Health, Humana, and Bank of America, I’ve focused on production-grade pipelines: orchestration with Airflow/AWS Glue Workflows/Azure Data Factory, data quality with Great Expectations and dbt tests, observability via CloudWatch/Azure Monitor, and secure governance using IAM, KMS, RBAC, and Lake Formation with compliance needs like HIPAA, PCI DSS, GDPR, and SOC 2.
