What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges my skills in data engineering and allows for professional growth, ideally in a collaborative environment focused on innovative data solutions.

As a Senior Data Engineer, I have a proven track record of architecting and optimizing enterprise-scale data pipelines, particularly using Azure technologies. My experience includes leading the development of cloud-native data platforms that have significantly reduced processing latency and improved analytics capabilities. I thrive on tackling complex data challenges and ensuring compliance while delivering insights that drive business decisions.

Throughout my career, I have successfully implemented robust ETL frameworks and CI/CD pipelines, which have drastically decreased deployment errors and enhanced data governance standards. My passion for mentoring junior engineers and fostering best practices in data architecture has contributed to the growth of my teams and the success of our projects. I am dedicated to leveraging my skills in Python, Databricks, and real-time data processing to create scalable solutions that meet the evolving needs of organizations.
