You probably think clicking "deploy" on Databricks from the cloud marketplace is all it takes to build a modern data stack. Instead, you get unmanageable infrastructure, skyrocketing costs, and pipelines feeding reports nobody trusts. 𝗜 𝗳𝗶𝘅 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁. With multiple Databricks, GCP, and AWS certifications and experience, I bridge the gap between raw data and materialize it into all the buzzwords you know about modern data: Context for AI, data mesh, MLOps, semantic layer, RAG, vector search, you name it; I know which ones work for your context. All of this backed up by a robust infrastructure (Terraform) and governance. 𝗡𝗼 𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘀, I'm a real person: A multi-certified, 5+ years of experience Cloud Solutions Architect building automated, high-integrity platforms that turn raw data into a competitive advantage. Send me an invite, I'll return a personalized, AI-free Loom video detailing a plan for your infrastructure, 𝗻𝗼 𝗔𝗜 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘃𝗲𝗱! ✪ 100% Job Success Score | 5.0★ average ✪ Proven experience on multi-cloud architectures 💡 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗱𝗼: • 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴: I build production-ready environments using Terraform. No manual marketplace or standard deployments that break at scale. • 𝗥𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴: Raw data becomes actionable. I build resilient Medallion architectures and automated ETL/ELT pipelines so your stakeholders actually trust the numbers. • 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗠𝗟𝗢𝗽𝘀: I bridge the gap between data engineering and machine learning. Using MLflow and Databricks Model Serving, I operationalize models into scalable, real-time REST endpoints and automated streaming inference pipelines. • 𝗚𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 & 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆: Proper data governance utilizing Unity Catalog (no legacy Hive metastores) to ensure your data is accessible, secure, and future-proof. • 𝗖𝗹𝗼𝘂𝗱 𝗖𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗢𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Most companies overspend on cloud infrastructure. I architect systems that pay for themselves in weeks by eliminating overhead and inefficiencies with efficient auditing and monitoring features. ✅ 𝗖𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 (𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗱): • Databricks Professional Data Engineer • Databricks Associate Data Engineer • Databricks Lakehouse Fundamentals • GCP Professional Data Engineer • GCP Associate Cloud Engineer • GCP Cloud Digital Leader • AWS Associate Solutions Architect • AWS Cloud Practitioner 🔧 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗹𝗼𝘂𝗱 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀: • 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗸𝘀: Workflows, LDP (Lakeflow Declarative Pipelines), Unity Catalog, Workflows, Databricks SQL, MLFlow. • 𝗔𝗺𝗮𝘇𝗼𝗻 𝗪𝗲𝗯 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲 (𝗔𝗪𝗦): EMR, Athena, Redshift, Glue, S3, RDS, Kinesis Data Firehose, Kinesis, and Data Streams. • 𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗖𝗹𝗼𝘂𝗱 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺 (𝗚𝗖𝗣): Bigquery, Dataform, Composer, Dataflow, Dataproc, Cloud Storage, Pub/Sub, Cloud Functions, and Looker Studio. • 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗼𝗳𝘁 𝗔𝘇𝘂𝗿𝗲: Data Factory, Synapse, and Storage Account. • 𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀: Terraform, dbt, Airflow, Airbyte, Hadoop, and Hive. ⚙️ 𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗲: • 𝗥𝗼𝗹𝗲𝘀: Data Architect, Data Engineer, Solutions Architect, Platform Engineer • 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝘀: Databricks (Delta Lake, Unity Catalog, Lakeflow, Workflows), BigQuery • 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗿𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲: Infrastructure as Code (IaC), Terraform, Multi-Cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure) • 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲: Medallion Architecture, Data Lakehouse, Data Governance, Data Quality, Machine Learning • 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴: PySpark, Python, SQL, dbt, Apache Airflow, ETL/ELT, CDC, Batch and Stream Processing
