Most data pipelines don't fail loudly. They rot quietly. A job starts silently skipping rows. A dashboard still loads, but the numbers stopped matching reality weeks ago. The warehouse bill creeps up because nobody ever tuned the queries. Eventually someone exports to a spreadsheet "just to be sure" and that's the moment the system stopped being trusted. That's the work I do: build data pipelines and warehouses people actually rely on, and fix the ones that quietly stopped working. Over the last 3 years I've delivered 55+ data projects across finance, healthcare, energy, and e-commerce, from one-off ETL jobs to platforms processing billions of records a day. I work GCP-first (BigQuery, Airflow, dbt, Dataflow), and I'm comfortable across AWS, Postgres, and the messy real-world stack most teams actually have. What I build: - End-to-end ETL/ELT pipelines in Python, SQL, Airflow, and dbt - BigQuery / Snowflake / Redshift warehouses and data models that stay clean as they grow - Migrations off legacy jobs and on-prem databases — without losing data in the move - Metabase, Looker Studio, and Power BI dashboards your team will actually open - Query and cost optimization when your warehouse bill stops making sense - API integrations with proper logging, retries, and checkpoints, so failures are visible instead of silent You probably need me if: - Your pipelines break and you hear it from a stakeholder, not an alert - Reports run slow, cost too much, or quietly disagree with each other - A previous developer left and nobody fully understands the setup anymore - You're scaling fast and the current data stack is starting to crack A few real results: - Architected pipelines processing 5B+ records daily at 99% reliability - Cut a client's warehouse costs ~50% by migrating legacy jobs to BigQuery - 4× throughput and 70% faster ingestion on an API pipeline pulling 2K+ domains a day - 40% faster pipeline runs through Airflow optimization How I work: a clear yes/no on feasibility before you commit, regular updates, and no disappearing mid-project. Most clients come back — usually because fixing one thing surfaces the next. If that sounds like your situation, send a short note on what's breaking or what you're trying to build, and I'll tell you straight what it'll take.

Messy data slowing your team down? I build scalable ETL/ELT pipelines and modern cloud architectures on Azure, Databricks, Fabric, and Snowflake that turn raw, chaotic data into clean, analytics-ready systems fast and reliably. I bridge the gap between fragmented data sources and production-grade dashboards, seamlessly adapting to your existing infrastructure rather than forcing an expensive rebuild. What I Can Help You With: Data Warehouse & Lakehouse Architecture: Implementing Medallion design patterns (Bronze → Silver → Gold) using Delta Lake, Microsoft Fabric OneLake, and Snowflake. Scalable ETL/ELT Ingestion: Building automated, metadata-driven pipelines via Azure Data Factory, Fabric Pipelines, Databricks (PySpark/SQL), and dbt. Real-Time Data Streaming: Architecting low-latency workflows using Apache Kafka, Azure Event Hubs, and streaming engines. Database Design & Optimization: Performance tuning, indexing, and data modeling for PostgreSQL, Azure SQL, and cloud warehouses. Proven Project Highlights: Microsoft Fabric Incremental Pipeline: Built a control-table pattern using Get Metadata, Lookup, and ForEach loops to orchestrate zero-duplicate, quarterly ingestion from SharePoint into OneLake via Dataflow Gen2. Azure/Databricks Streaming: Developed a restaurant analytics platform processing 80,000+ events/day, cutting reporting lag from 6 hours to under 3 minutes. Kafka/Snowflake Pipeline: Engineered a real-time stock market data pipeline tracking 120+ tickers with under 8 seconds end-to-end latency. I write clean, documented code your team can maintain long-term and provide transparent daily updates. Message me with your data challenge and I’ll walk you through exactly how to solve it.
