What I'm looking for

I seek a role focusing on Azure Databricks and Lakehouse design where I can build scalable ETL pipelines, improve performance, and own end-to-end production delivery.

I am an Azure Data Engineer with 3.5+ years building and operating cloud-native ETL/ELT pipelines and Lakehouse architectures on Microsoft Azure.

I designed and implemented Medallion (Bronze/Silver/Gold) Lakehouse patterns on Azure Databricks and Delta Lake, re-platformed legacy jobs to scalable Spark pipelines, and optimized transformations to reduce load windows and execution times.

I have hands-on expertise in Azure Data Factory, Databricks (PySpark/SparkSQL), Delta Lake, ADLS, and Azure Key Vault, and I drive CI/CD integration, data quality checks, and production support while mentoring junior engineers.

I deliver documented, production-grade Python/PySpark modules, enforce Delta best practices, and collaborate with stakeholders to ensure reliable analytics-ready datasets and measurable operational improvements.
