What I'm looking for

I seek remote roles on data-driven teams where I can build scalable ELT pipelines, improve data quality, and deliver actionable analytics while growing in systems design and observability.

I am a Data Engineer with hands-on experience building ELT pipelines, orchestrating workflows with Apache Airflow, and modeling data using dbt. I have applied Python, SQL, and cloud tools to clean, normalize, and validate datasets across education, government, and commercial projects.

In prior roles I reduced manual data entry by 30% through automated workflows, cut downtime on high-traffic sites by 30% through proactive maintenance, and decreased data entry errors by 40% while unifying multi-department reporting. I developed and deployed a production-style FRED economic indicators pipeline with Airflow, dbt, PostgreSQL, Docker Compose and Power BI.

I seek remote roles with data-driven teams where I can build robust ingestion and transformation systems, improve data quality and observability, and contribute to reliable, scalable analytics platforms.
