What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can leverage my skills in data automation, business intelligence, and CRM integration to drive insights and improve decision-making. I thrive in collaborative environments that value innovation and efficiency. I’m especially interested in companies that focus on data-driven growth and encourage process optimization to reduce manual work.

I’m a Data Automation Specialist with over 5 years of experience in automating data workflows, integrating CRM data, and building BI reporting solutions. My focus is on leveraging Python, SQL, and cloud platforms (like Google Cloud and Azure) to streamline reporting processes and improve data accuracy. I’m passionate about using automation to reduce manual tasks and enhance data-driven decision-making. I thrive in collaborative environments where structured processes and innovation are valued.

I'm looking for roles that blend BI reporting, data automation, and CRM integration without heavy pipeline engineering or on-call responsibilities. I’m especially interested in mid-sized or growing companies in the SaaS or FinTech space that prioritize automation and efficiency.
