What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build scalable, secure data platforms and reliable analytics systems while partnering closely with Product, Engineering, and Analytics teams. I value work involving cloud architecture, data quality, performance optimization, and meaningful technical ownership.

At Wiom, I build cloud-native data solutions across Snowflake, dbt, PostgreSQL, AWS, and Fivetran. I reduced Snowflake credit consumption by 33% through warehouse right-sizing, workload isolation, and idle-compute suspension.

I built a Python and FastMCP service that converts metric questions into deterministic SQL against a dbt semantic layer, giving 250+ users consistent KPI results in Metabase and Claude. I also built near-real-time ingestion with AWS Kinesis, Azure Service Bus, and Snowflake Streams.

Previously at Taazaa Inc and 5X, I designed Medallion and ELT architectures, automated Bronze-to-Gold workflows with Apache Airflow, and built dbt models, testing, lineage, and data-quality frameworks. My pipelines processed 50K+ daily API events and reduced processing latency by 50%, while Python workflows archived 200+ datasets each day.

My earlier work at BizAcuity covered enterprise ETL, data migrations, replication, CDC, and database performance across SQL Server, PostgreSQL, Teradata, Snowflake, and Informatica IICS. I enjoy partnering with Product, Engineering, and Analytics teams to troubleshoot data platforms, improve reliability, and make analytics trustworthy.
