What I'm looking for

I seek a senior BI/data role where I can design ETL pipelines, build BI solutions, lead analytics projects, mentor teams, and drive data-driven decisions in a collaborative, growth-focused organization.

I am a Data Specialist with over 9 years of hands-on experience building BI solutions, ETL pipelines, and predictive analytics using Python, SQL, Power BI and Tableau.

I have led major data migrations and application deployments, including an Order Collection mobile app adopted by ~1,200 users and a Confirm Sales data module, and was recognized as a Performer in 2014.

At BRAC Health Program and Pharma Solutions I optimized ETL and SQL workloads to improve processing speeds by 50%, moved paper processes to online inventory systems, built data warehouses, and implemented company-wide BI training for 100+ end users, raising self-service analytics by 45%.

I am a practical problem-solver who partners with stakeholders to translate business requirements into robust data architectures, dashboards, and automated reporting that drive better decisions and measurable operational gains.
