Senior Data Engineer specializing in cloud data platforms and real-time analytics

Las Vegas, NV6y exp

“Data engineer (Credit One) who built and owned real-time financial transaction and credit risk/fraud data systems end-to-end on AWS + Snowflake. Delivered high-scale pipelines (150k events/hour; ~2TB/week), raised data accuracy to 99%, and cut Snowflake costs 42% while adding strong observability, schema-drift handling, and production-grade APIs/documentation.”

“Built from scratch a social media analytics MVP featuring an LLM-powered semantic search agent that became a core part of the product experience within a 6-week deadline. Stands out for focusing on production readiness early—retrieval-first design, explicit tool constraints, structured outputs, idempotent services, and practical eval/monitoring loops rather than demo-only AI.”

“Full-stack engineer with recent startup-style experience at SynapOne building enterprise B2B SaaS platforms for compliance and operational review workflows. Stands out for turning ambiguous business problems into production systems, including AI-assisted workflow automation, scalable Go/Python microservices, React/TypeScript interfaces, and PostgreSQL/Elasticsearch-backed platforms used daily by customers.”

“Serial entrepreneur and operator with experience financing and scaling startups using bank debt, PE debt, and self-funding, including a real estate asset management company grown through creative debt/equity structures. Former VP Engineering & Online Operations at a colo/cloud provider acquired by Zayo; built a global solutions engineering org in 30 days that contributed 18% of company growth and scaled quarterly revenue from ~$300K to ~$1.25M.”

“Engineering leader focused on developer platforms and identity: led a 5-person team building a multi-tenant IAM framework extending Duende IdentityServer, including governance, API standards, and multi-language SDKs. Drove major API architecture improvements by introducing GraphQL alongside REST, cutting client calls from 4 to 1 and reducing payload size by 60% within 6 months, with strong emphasis on stability (semver, E2E tests, feature flags, blue-green deploys).”

“Infrastructure/Platform engineer with deep production ownership of large IBM Power/AIX estates (70 LPARs, dual VIOS, HMC across two data centers), including live DLPAR tuning and PowerHA clustering for Oracle/WebSphere. Also brings modern DevOps/IaC experience—built GitHub Actions pipelines deploying to Kubernetes with OIDC/Vault secrets and implemented Terraform to provision AWS EKS/VPC/IAM/ALB/RDS with drift detection and controlled rollouts.”
