What I'm looking for

I seek a senior data engineering role building secure, compliant multi-cloud data platforms with automation, data quality, and close collaboration with analytics and ML teams.

I am a Senior Data Engineer with over six years of experience designing and delivering cloud-native data platforms across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. I focus on building scalable ETL and streaming pipelines, data lakes, and data warehouses that enable data-driven decision-making.

My work emphasizes compliance and security for regulated industries, having implemented HIPAA, HITECH, GDPR, FDA 21 CFR Part 11, and 21 CFR Part 820 controls while optimizing performance in Redshift, BigQuery, Snowflake, and Azure Synapse.

I lead automation and CI/CD for data infrastructure using Terraform, Azure DevOps, AWS CodePipeline, and GitHub Actions, and I have built data quality frameworks with Great Expectations and AWS Glue DataBrew to ensure dataset integrity at scale.

I collaborate closely with BI and data science teams to operationalize ML models and deliver self-service analytics through Power BI, Looker, and QuickSight, while ensuring secure multi-cloud integrations and observability for production data systems.
