I am a Senior Data Engineer with 6+ years designing and optimizing cloud-scale data platforms across AWS, Azure, and GCP, focused on Snowflake, dbt, Python, SQL, Databricks, and governed analytics.

I have unified 50+ disparate sources into a governed analytics layer for 500+ stakeholders, built 150+ dbt models that cut runtimes by 60% and downstream defects by 40%, and engineered ETL/ELT pipelines that reduced reporting lag from hours to under 10 minutes.

I prototype AI copilots and RAG solutions using Snowflake Cortex, LangChain, LlamaIndex, OpenAI SDK, Vertex AI, and Azure AI, accelerating pilots from weeks to days and reducing experimentation costs. I also deliver reusable functions, Streamlit data apps, and automated workflows that cut manual effort and operational costs significantly.

I partner with cross-functional teams to standardize KPIs, drive CI/CD automation, and apply data governance and cost-optimization practices, consistently delivering measurable business impact and scalable analytics products.
