About

Data Engineer with 7 years of industry experience (4.5 YEO DE + 2.5 YOE SWE) building and operating reliable, production-grade data pipelines that replace manual reporting and support finance and operations teams. I focus on designing maintainable ETL/ELT workflows using AWS, Snowflake, dbt, SQL, and Python, with a strong emphasis on data correctness, observability, and production reliability. My work often involves integrating multiple third-party systems, standardizing messy operational data, and modeling it into trusted analytical datasets used by analytics and business teams. I’m comfortable working across ingestion, transformation, and monitoring, and I prioritize simple, debuggable architectures that scale with real-world constraints. I bring a strong foundation in SQL (PostgreSQL, Snowflake, Redshift) and Python, backed by a background in software engineering and hands-on experience supporting production analytics use cases. I hold a Master’s in Data Science and a Bachelor’s in Computer Science, am AWS certified, and volunteer with the PostgreSQL US Diversity Committee to support open-source initiatives and community growth.
