“Data engineer with experience at Wells Fargo and Accenture owning end-to-end production pipelines processing hundreds of millions of transactional/risk records daily. Strong focus on data quality and reliability (reconciliation checks, schema drift detection, CloudWatch alerting) plus Spark performance tuning and idempotent backfills using Delta Lake/merge logic across AWS (S3/EMR/Databricks/Redshift) and Azure (ADF/Azure DevOps/Azure Monitor).”

“Data engineer/backend engineer with experience in healthcare (Cardinal Health provider enrollment) and finance (Northern Trust) building and stabilizing data pipelines and REST services. Worked with APIs and Kafka at ~200k–300k records/day, improving data quality (DLQ + validation), performance (SQL/indexing), and reliability/observability (logging, alerts, consumer lag metrics), and stood up an early-stage financial data service with Jenkins-based CI/CD.”

“Data engineer at CenterPoint Energy who built and operated multiple production-grade GCP data systems: a daily Snowflake→BigQuery replication framework (150+ tables) with Monte Carlo/Atlan-driven observability and schema-drift protection, plus a FastAPI metrics service for pipeline health. Demonstrated measurable impact (40% faster dashboard queries, 70% less manual refresh work, zero data loss) and strong operational rigor (scaling Cloud Run jobs, SAP SLT reconciliation, quarantine patterns, CI/CD via GitHub Actions + Terraform).”
