What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build scalable, highly available database and data platforms, improve performance and reliability, automate delivery, and collaborate with teams that value strong data governance and continuous learning.

At Flex&Gate, I led scalable PostgreSQL database architecture, migrated legacy systems to AWS, and implemented high-availability solutions using PostgreSQL replication and AWS availability zones.

I build reliable data pipelines with AWS Glue and Apache Airflow, automate infrastructure with Terraform, and streamline database migrations through Jenkins-based CI/CD. I also created a Python and Tableau reporting tool, improved monitoring with CloudWatch, and strengthened backup and recovery with AWS S3.

Earlier, I designed schemas, ETL processes, data warehouses, APIs, and database security solutions at Spectral Energies and Six Flags. I enjoy mentoring engineers, improving data integrity, and making database systems faster, more resilient, and easier to operate.
