About Me

Experienced and versatile Staff Data Engineer with 6+ years of delivering scalable, cloud-native data solutions across diverse industries, including Media & Entertainment, Insurance, and Nutrition. Proven expertise in architecting end-to-end data pipelines using Azure Data Factory, Databricks, PySpark, and AWS services such as Glue, Lambda, S3, and DynamoDB. Strong background in building data platforms that enable personalized content delivery, actuarial analytics, and healthfocused insights through efficient, secure, and real-time data processing. In my most recent role, I led a team of 3 data engineers to successfully modernize a legacy data platform by migrating it to Azure, improving pipeline efficiency, and reducing processing time by over 40%. I bring a strong understanding of data modelling, ETL/ELT workflows, and automation strategies that enable organizations to make data-driven decisions faster and with greater accuracy. I’m passionate about driving engineering excellence, mentoring junior team members, and collaborating with cross-functional stakeholders to align data strategy with business goals.
