What I'm looking for

I'm open to full-time or B2B data engineering and data architecture work, building cloud data platforms, pipelines, and metadata-driven solutions. I'm fully available for European business hours.

At Casumo, I led data engineering and architecture for a hybrid GCP and Snowflake platform, designed metadata-driven orchestration, and built scalable batch and streaming pipelines for high-volume gaming data. I also helped reduce AWS infrastructure costs by approximately 50% through storage lifecycle and EMR optimisation.

Previously at VGZ, I owned enterprise data products spanning engineering, quality, testing, reporting, and support. I build practical cloud data solutions with Python, SQL, PySpark, Airflow, Snowflake, and Azure, and enjoy turning business requirements into reliable data products.
