Renne Botchway
@rennebotchway
I build multi-cloud data platforms, AI workflows, and governed analytics pipelines for enterprise teams.
What I'm looking for
I've built production data platforms for Ageas Insurance, EDF Energy, Mitel, SSE, and CMS Law, delivering governed Snowflake, AWS, and Databricks solutions across insurance, energy, finance, and customer intelligence.
At Ageas, I engineered a multi-layer Snowflake warehouse for claims and underwriting, built CDC incremental loads from iSeries journal data, and implemented retention and redaction controls across billion-row tables. At EDF Energy, I modernised energy-trading integrations and improved proxy-hedging pipeline processing by 60%.
I've also delivered AI and serverless solutions through Larenway Consulting, including a Bedrock RAG agent over finance policy documents that reduced idle infrastructure costs by 90% using S3 Vectors, Terraform, and PII guardrails.
My work combines Python, SQL, Snowflake, dbt, AWS, Databricks, dimensional modelling, data quality, and practical governance. I enjoy mentoring junior analysts and engineers and bringing finance-domain discipline to data engineering and analytics.
