About

Senior Data Engineer with end-to-end ownership of complex data ecosystems. I build secure, scalable data pipelines across diverse applications and APIs, ensuring reliable, well-modeled data for analytics, security, and product teams. I focus on strong data engineering fundamentals including automated testing, metadata standards, and pipeline observability. I also leverage AI-assisted development, building and using LLM-based tools and agents to streamline tasks such as schema design, documentation, and workflow optimization. I’ve led major refactoring and migration efforts, modernizing legacy systems and improving data models and storage efficiency while delivering maintainable, high-impact data solutions.
