Vitor Cavalcante
@vitorcavalcante
Data engineer specializing in scalable pipelines, automation, and AI-enabled data workflows.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven data engineer with strong experience building scalable data pipelines, automation tools, and AI-ready metadata systems across cloud platforms. I have delivered measurable efficiency gains — automating schema generation, reducing manual DDL work, and improving data quality visibility.
My hands-on background spans Python, Java, Spark, Databricks, and major cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure), where I optimized ingestion and processing to cut runtime and increase data availability for analytics and ML. I have implemented production ETL frameworks, RESTful APIs, and tooling that enable downstream model fine-tuning and agent-driven automation.
I bring a pragmatic, engineering-first ethos focused on reducing manual work, increasing observability, and enabling AI-driven workflows that empower commercial and analytics teams across multiple countries.
