What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build and modernise governed cloud data platforms, automate reliable deployment and data pipelines, and deliver production-ready solutions in regulated or complex enterprise environments.

I'm currently delivering national regulatory platforms for the National Automotive Design and Development Council, including a vehicle assembly licence management system that cut processing time by 65% across 13 workflow stages.

I built 100+ REST APIs, 57 database tables, event-driven notifications and role-based controls for 200+ concurrent users. I also productionised a dealership management platform with payment, government API and document-management integrations.

At Uinsure, I consolidated 15+ Azure Data Factory pipelines into three unified pipelines, reducing maintenance overhead by 80%, and automated Azure DevOps deployments from more than two hours to five minutes. At CGA by NIQ, I built Fabric, Databricks and AWS EMR workflows processing around 100GB daily and improved transformation efficiency by 40%.

Across insurance, retail, legal, healthcare and government environments, I build governed data platforms, medallion architectures and reliable ETL/ELT pipelines. My work combines Azure, Microsoft Fabric, Databricks, AWS, Spark, SQL, Python, Docker and Kubernetes with a practical focus on automation, lineage and production readiness.
