At RS21, I architect enterprise batch and near-real-time data pipelines and design lakehouse platforms using Azure Databricks, Delta Lake, and Unity Catalog. I also develop integration and orchestration patterns and strengthen governance with data contracts, lineage, and validation.

At Gifthealth, I built healthcare data pipelines and API integrations, working with EHR/EMR data and standards including FHIR R4, HL7 v2.x, and C-CDA. Earlier at 3Cloud, I developed SQL-based ETL processes and prepared datasets and data marts for reporting and analysis.
