CanadaWhat I'm looking for
I am an experienced Data Engineer with eight years in IT, specializing in Snowflake, cloud data warehousing, and scalable ETL pipelines.
I have delivered cloud data warehouse migrations with zero downtime, reduced report generation times by 60%, lowered storage costs by 25%, and cut query costs by 30% through schema design, clustering and materialized views.
I build automated pipelines using Azure Data Factory, Databricks (PySpark), Apache Airflow and SSIS, integrate Power BI for real-time reporting, and have implemented ML-backed streaming solutions that reduced latency and materially lowered financial losses.
I prioritize secure, compliant data solutions (RBAC, Azure Key Vault, PIPEDA-conscious practices) and enjoy driving end-to-end automation that measurably improves performance and cost-efficiency.
