What I'm looking for

I am a Data Engineer with over four years of experience specializing in cloud-native solutions across Azure, AWS, and GCP. My expertise lies in designing scalable data architectures and developing real-time and batch ETL/ELT pipelines using tools like Airflow, ADF, and AWS Glue. I have successfully built streaming data platforms utilizing Kafka, Kinesis, and Event Hub, enabling low-latency ingestion and analytics for enterprise-grade data processing.

Throughout my career, I have collaborated with cross-functional teams to deliver clean, reliable data for machine learning models and BI tools. My work includes managing SQL and NoSQL databases, developing CI/CD pipelines, and implementing robust security measures to ensure compliance with industry standards such as HIPAA and GDPR. I am passionate about optimizing data workflows and mentoring junior engineers to foster a culture of continuous learning and improvement.
