Shiva C — Data Engineer

Data Engineer with 4+ years of experience building production-grade data pipelines and analytics solutions across healthcare and technology. I specialize in GCP-native architectures (BigQuery, Dataform, Pub/Sub, and Dataflow) and enjoy thinking through the trade-offs between performance, cost, and maintainability that shape good data platforms. Currently at Optum, I work on large-scale ETL/ELT frameworks and real-time streaming systems that support healthcare and financial reporting for major public companies. Before that, at Evernorth Health Services, I worked across end-to-end pipeline development serving multiple business units and helped improve production reliability through better observability and validation practices. My core stack: BigQuery, Python, SQL, Dataform, dbt, Apache Kafka, Pub/Sub, Spark, Airflow, Docker, Kubernetes, GCP I hold a Master's in Data Science from the University at Buffalo and certifications as a GCP Professional Data Engineer, Google AI Professional, and AWS Solutions Architect Associate. Always interested in connecting with engineers and teams working on meaningful data infrastructure. Feel free to reach out!
