What I'm looking for

I seek a senior engineering role building secure, cloud-native data platforms with strong governance, MLOps support, and opportunities to lead architecture and mentor teams.

I am a Senior Data Engineer with 12+ years building and modernizing cloud-native data platforms across Healthcare, Financial Services, Insurance, and Retail. I design high-throughput ETL/ELT pipelines, lakehouse and warehouse architectures, and real-time streaming solutions using AWS, Azure, and GCP to deliver analytics-ready, compliant data products that power BI and ML use cases.

I have led large-scale implementations with Snowflake, Redshift, Databricks, Glue, BigQuery and Kafka, driven CI/CD and IaC adoption with Terraform and GitOps, and mentored engineering teams to improve performance, observability, and governance. I partner with stakeholders to align data strategy to business outcomes and have a strong track record of delivering secure, cost-optimized, production-grade data platforms supporting HIPAA and financial compliance.
