About

I am a Data Engineer with 5 years of experience in building and optimizing data-driven solutions. I work in HSBC’s Workforce Strategy and Insights team, where I’m contributing to the build out of a modern HR data platform within the Azure ecosystem. My work involves building end-to-end data pipelines which includes ingesting, transforming, and organising data using tools like Databricks and PySpark. The data flowing through this platform powers reports/insights that support senior leaders in making informed people decisions. My expertise lies in Python, PySpark, SQL, and problem-solving, along with reliable coding skills, complemented by hands-on experience with Azure technologies such as Azure Databricks, Azure Data Factory (ADF), Synapse, Delta Lake, ETL, and more. My approach to data engineering is both strategic and hands-on. I am deeply involved in the technical details, from optimizing ETL processes to ensuring data security within cloud environments. Experienced in designing data systems by carefully defining the data flow, storage, and processing layers. I excel in crafting comprehensive data architecture that integrate strategic high-level planning with detailed low-level design. I tackle coding challenges by applying Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) to develop efficient solutions.
