Lead Software Engineer at EPAM Systems building data pipelines for Sybase-to-AWS migration.

At EPAM Systems, I design data architecture and integration solutions, and develop Informatica-based ETL processes for data-intensive applications. I also maintain data pipelines supporting the migration of on-premises Sybase databases to AWS.

At the Central Bank of Armenia, I designed and maintained the enterprise data warehouse and developed data marts and SAP BusinessObjects solutions. I also led development of the national Loan Registry, containing granular loan-level data across Armenia.

Earlier at the Central Bank, I established the IT and Payment Supervision Division and led work on technology risk assessments, IT audits, and payment-system supervision. At the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Armenia, I developed a macroeconomic data database and dashboards for analysis and decision-making.
