I specialize in streaming architectures, lakehouse design, ETL/ELT transformation, and governed data platforms. My recent work has focused on Kafka-based event pipelines, schema governance, observability, and infrastructure automation across cloud environments. I have hands-on experience with Databricks, Snowflake, Iceberg, dbt, Dagster, Terraform, Docker, Grafana, and Prometheus, and I enjoy turning complex business and operational needs into reliable data products. My background also includes business systems analysis, application support, dashboard development, system testing, validation, and user training. I am comfortable working across technical and business teams to translate requirements into scalable solutions. I recently completed an M.Sc. in Data Analytics and continue to strengthen my expertise in cloud data engineering, security, and platform optimization. I value clean architecture, measurable reliability, and practical delivery. I am open to opportunities where I can contribute to modern data platforms, improve data quality and observability, and help teams make faster, better decisions with trusted data. ## Skills 33 capabilities[Apache Iceberg](https://jobicy.com/talent/apache-iceberg.md)[Apache Kafka](https://jobicy.com/talent/apache-kafka.md)[AWS](https://jobicy.com/talent/aws.md)[Azure](https://jobicy.com/talent/azure.md)[Business Intelligence](https://jobicy.com/talent/business-intelligence.md)[C#](https://jobicy.com/talent/c-sharp.md)[CI CD](https://jobicy.com/talent/ci-cd.md)[Cloud Infrastructure](https://jobicy.com/talent/cloud-infrastructure.md)[Dagster](https://jobicy.com/talent/dagster.md)[Dashboard Development](https://jobicy.com/talent/dashboard-development.md)[Data Engineering](https://jobicy.com/talent/data-engineering.md)[Data Modeling](https://jobicy.com/talent/data-modeling.md)[DBT](https://jobicy.com/talent/dbt.md)[ELT](https://jobicy.com/talent/elt.md)[ETL](https://jobicy.com/talent/etl.md)[Event Driven Architecture](https://jobicy.com/talent/event-driven-architecture.md)[FinOps](https://jobicy.com/talent/finops.md)[GCP](https://jobicy.com/talent/gcp.md)[IAM](https://jobicy.com/talent/iam.md)[Infrastructure as Code](https://jobicy.com/talent/infrastructure-as-code.md)[Machine Learning](https://jobicy.com/talent/machine-learning.md)[Medallion Architecture](https://jobicy.com/talent/medallion-architecture.md)[Protobuf](https://jobicy.com/talent/protobuf.md)[Python](https://jobicy.com/talent/python.md)[R](https://jobicy.com/talent/r.md)[Reporting](https://jobicy.com/talent/reporting.md)[Security](https://jobicy.com/talent/security.md)[SLA Management](https://jobicy.com/talent/sla-management.md)[SQL](https://jobicy.com/talent/sql.md)[T SQL](https://jobicy.com/talent/t-sql.md)[Terraform](https://jobicy.com/talent/terraform.md)[User Training](https://jobicy.com/talent/user-training.md)[Validation](https://jobicy.com/talent/validation.md) ## Tech stack & tools Working toolkit ### Analytics [![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/grafana/grafana-original.svg) Grafana](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=grafana.md) ### Application Hosting [![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/azure/azure-original.svg) Azure](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=azure.md) ### Development [![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/docker/docker-original.svg) Docker](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=docker.md)[![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/terraform/terraform-original.svg) Terraform](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=terraform.md) ### Marketing and Sales Tools [![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/salesforce/salesforce-original.svg) Salesforce](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=salesforce.md) ### Monitoring [![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/prometheus/prometheus-original.svg) Prometheus](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=prometheus.md) ## Experience Career history ### Data Platform Engineer · Harrington Housing Apr 2025 – Dec 2025Architected event-driven pipelines with Apache Kafka and Protobuf to stream maintenance, move-out, and support events in real time across 300+ properties in Canada and the U.S. Reduced data latency from hours to under 30 seconds, enabling same-day operational responses such as instant maintenance dispatch and live occupancy dashboards.
