On-Premise Expertise: Skilled in SQL Server, Oracle, and Sybase databases, with strong experience in ETL (SSIS, Alteryx), data modelling, performance tuning, and secure database administration.

Cloud Expertise (Azure): Proficient in Azure Data Factory, Synapse Analytics, and Databricks, with proven success in on-prem to cloud migrations, building scalable ETL/ELT pipelines, and delivering secure data provisioning via APIs.

Leadership: Currently a Data Engineering Manager at one of the leading Big4 audit firms, leading teams in data modernisation, DevOps adoption, and migration projects that reduce costs and improve scalability.

Software Engineering Foundation:Strong background in ASP.NET, C#, Python, and JavaScript, enabling me to bridge software development with data engineering for robust, business-driven solutions.

I am seeking global data engineering opportunities where I can apply both on-premise expertise and Azure cloud skills to design and deliver impactful data solutions.

Expectations

In my next role, I hope to apply my on-premise and cloud data engineering expertise to deliver scalable, impactful solutions that support both technical teams and business users.
I value the opportunity to learn from new industries and diverse problem domains, as I believe data engineering principles cut across sectors.
I also aim to transition into AI/ML engineering, building on my current data expertise to deliver even deeper insights and automation.
