Data Engineer crafting scalable Azure ETL/ELT pipelines and Lakehouse models with performance and cost optimization.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Data Engineer with 4.5+ years of experience designing and implementing scalable ETL/ELT pipelines and data integration strategies across Azure, Databricks, Apache Spark, SQL, and Delta Lake. I bring strong dimensional data modeling (Star/Snowflake), Medallion architecture, and practical BI delivery through interactive Power BI dashboards, with a focus on data governance and reliability.
In my current role, I designed and deployed 50+ Azure Data Factory pipelines processing 1TB+ of data monthly, implementing SCD-Type2, CDC, and incremental load strategies. I migrated 1TB+ Teradata workloads into Azure Databricks Lakehouse using PySpark/SparkSQL and Delta Lake, reducing pipeline runtime by 50%+ and achieving 30% cost reduction through CDC-based loads, Auto-Optimize, and cluster autoscaling—while also automating workflows with REST APIs and Webhooks as I expand my Python and Generative/Agentic AI exposure for pipeline automation.
