What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation and growth in data engineering and AI.

I am a dedicated Pharma Research and Data Analyst with over a decade of experience in data analysis and a strong focus on transitioning into Data Engineering, Generative AI Engineering, and Machine Learning Engineering. My expertise lies in data engineering, cloud solutions, and developing robust data pipelines. I have a solid foundation in machine learning models and cloud-based infrastructures, particularly AWS and Azure, which I am currently enhancing through my certification in IBM's Generative AI for Data Engineering specialization.

Throughout my career, I have successfully conducted in-depth data analyses that have led to significant business improvements, such as a 20% increase in sales revenue at Novartis Pharma. My experience includes building interactive dashboards with Tableau to translate complex data into actionable insights, as well as developing data pipelines using Databricks and PySpark to automate data flows. I am passionate about leveraging my skills in programming, machine learning, and cloud platforms to drive data-driven decision-making and enhance operational efficiency.
