Databricks Certified Data Engineer Professional, focused on Databricks and Azure. I build and run the production data pipelines a business depends on every day, and make them faster, more reliable and easier to maintain.

What I can do for you: • Lakehouse pipelines on Databricks: PySpark, Delta Lake, Bronze/Silver/Gold layers • Azure data platforms from scratch: Azure Data Factory, self-hosted integration runtime, Data Lake • Ingestion of ERP and on-premises data (SAP, Oracle, SQL Server) into the cloud • Orchestration and monitoring with Airflow and Azure, with alerts before users notice a failure • Troubleshooting and tuning of failing or slow Spark jobs • Transformations and data modeling with dbt and SQL What I'm working on now: • Keeping production Airflow and Databricks pipelines healthy for a global enterprise, with 100,000+ runs a day • Building an Azure data platform for a manufacturer: ERP → Data Factory → Parquet → dbt • Using AI agents to triage pipeline failures and find root causes faster Results: • Raised the platform success rate from 96% to 99% across 100,000+ daily runs (75% fewer failures), mainly by fixing cluster configurations and adding preventive actions • 40% less ETL processing time while data volume grew 3x Background: data engineer since 2022, at consulting firms (Accenture, Rox Partner) and in industry (Neoenergia, Continental).
