What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a remote-first, internationally distributed company that supports working from Europe permanently, where I can build and automate data-driven systems—ETL pipelines, APIs, and practical internal tooling—with a strong team collaboration culture.

I’m a data analyst and application developer with 10+ years of experience building, maintaining, and automating data-driven systems. I combine full-stack application development (VB.NET, Python) with relational database design and administration (MySQL, MariaDB, Microsoft Access) to turn complex data into operational outcomes.

In my recent role, I developed VB.NET/Python applications for EV charging grant workflows, architected ETL pipelines that ingest and validate provider data, and improved operations with automated notifications and audit-ready tools using Power Apps, SharePoint, and Access. I also bring QA leadership experience, building Selenium/Cypress test frameworks and supporting distributed teams across multiple XR platforms.
