Welcome

I’m a data engineer who enjoys getting close to real problems and building data systems that people can actually rely on. I work hands-on with data pipelines, storage, and platforms, helping teams turn growing, messy data into something stable, scalable, and useful.

Below, you’ll find the technical domains I work in — from core engineering foundations and lakehouse architectures to orchestration, cloud platforms, and data quality — each reflecting how I approach data engineering in production.

Professional Focus

Scope of Work

My work typically spans the design, evolution, and operation of data platforms. I’m involved in shaping system architecture, reviewing existing implementations, and improving reliability, scalability, and maintainability across data pipelines and platforms.

I also work closely with teams to clarify responsibilities, improve development and operational practices, and establish patterns that support long-term ownership. The focus is on making data systems easier to understand, operate, and evolve over time.

What I Work On

I work on the parts of data platforms that tend to matter most in production — architecture, reliability, and day-to-day operability. This includes reviewing designs, improving existing pipelines, and helping teams make practical decisions around trade-offs and constraints.

Alongside hands-on technical work, I support teams by improving how systems are owned and maintained, so platforms remain sustainable as requirements and scale change.
