What I'm looking for

I seek senior/data-platform roles where I can lead cloud data architecture, drive governance and democratization, collaborate with leaders, and scale teams and pipelines.

I am a results-oriented Data Engineering Coordinator with a strong track record building scalable cloud data platforms and leading multidisciplinary teams. I align technical roadmaps with business strategy to drive data-informed decision-making and operationalize analytics.

At my current role I lead the technical vision and execution for data engineering, implemented a data governance strategy that improved data quality, security and democratization, and collaborate directly with C-level and business leaders to translate challenges into data solutions.

I bring deep hands-on expertise in GCP and modern data stacks (BigQuery, Spark, Airflow, Python, SQL), experience architecting data lakes and warehouses, and a commitment to enabling autonomous, metrics-driven teams while ensuring compliance with data protection rules like LGPD.
