What I'm looking for

I am seeking a senior data-engineering role focused on ETL/ELT, Big Data, cloud platforms, performance optimization, and mentoring teams, ideally in collaborative, fast-paced environments.

I am a data engineer with 4+ years building and maintaining production ETL/ELT pipelines and data warehouses using Python, SQL, Airflow, Snowflake, and AWS services. I focus on data modelling, automation, and data quality to enable analytics and reporting.

At Maiden Century I designed and maintained ingestion pipelines for 200+ datasets handling over 5 TB daily, led migration from a legacy Python/PostgreSQL system to a Snowflake ELT model, and improved pipeline runtimes and data quality substantially. I also built a FastAPI-based data access service and supported AI/ML model feeds that enabled new commercial revenue streams.

I mentor junior engineers, work closely with distributed product and partner teams across regions, and apply best practices in monitoring, validation, and performance optimisation to deliver reliable data platforms.
