What I'm looking for

I seek roles that combine cloud data engineering and QA leadership where I can build scalable, cost‑aware test automation, mentor teams, and ensure secure, compliant data pipelines.

I am a cloud-focused Data Engineer and QA leader with over 6 years of hands-on experience across healthcare, insurance, automotive, and retail domains. I specialize in cloud-native testing and building scalable data pipelines using Azure Databricks and Snowflake.

I have designed and deployed automation frameworks and CI/CD-integrated testing for AWS and Azure, including serverless validation with Lambda and Azure Functions. My work emphasizes data quality, ELT validation, and performance benchmarking for large-scale claim and analytics workloads.

I modernize test ecosystems by introducing containerized environments, infrastructure-as-code validations (Terraform, CloudFormation), and test observability using CloudWatch, App Insights, and Log Analytics. I have led initiatives for HIPAA and SOC 2 compliance, secure handling of PHI/PII, and cost-aware test strategies.

I mentor junior engineers and collaborate with cross-functional teams to embed testing throughout the SDLC, delivering traceable, auditable validation across hybrid and multi-cloud deployments while optimizing test execution costs.
