Fahad S.
Data Engineer | Fabric, Snowflake, RAG, Python, AWS
Most businesses don't have a single stack. Their data lives across Microsoft, AWS, and dozens of SaaS tools. I build the systems that bring it all together. DATA PLATFORMS & ANALYTICS ✦ Snowflake + dbt platforms with tested marts, versioned models, and source freshness monitoring at every layer ✦ AWS-native ingestion using S3, Snowpipe, and IAM storage integrations built for security and scale ✦ Microsoft Fabric data platforms designed around governance, reliability, and long-term maintainability ✦ Azure-to-Fabric migrations with Medallion Architecture implemented end to end ✦ OneLake-connected Power BI reporting that delivers trusted metrics and fast decision-making ✦ SaaS data consolidation across HubSpot, Stripe, Zendesk, Mixpanel, and other business systems AI & KNOWLEDGE SYSTEMS ✦ Production RAG pipelines with structure-aware chunking, versioned embeddings, and retrieval optimization ✦ pgvector and HNSW indexing for scalable semantic search ✦ Citation enforcement, audit logging, and source traceability built into every response ✦ AI systems designed for reliability, transparency, and operational use—not demos INTEGRATIONS & AUTOMATION ✦ Microsoft Graph, SharePoint, Teams, and Power Platform integrations when data workflows extend beyond analytics ✦ Automated data movement, validation, monitoring, and exception handling across cloud platforms RECENT OUTCOMES ✦ Delivered a Snowflake + dbt platform on AWS with 60+ tested models and sub-two-minute ingestion latency ✦ Unified HubSpot, Stripe, Zendesk, and operational data into a single reporting layer, eliminating weekly spreadsheet reconciliation ✦ Rebuilt a production RAG platform with citation enforcement and relevance controls, eliminating out-of-corpus responses in testing ✦ Reduced pipeline runtime by 30% during an Azure-to-Fabric Medallion Architecture migration completed within 8 weeks I work with 1–2 clients at a time because data platforms require ownership, not ticket-taking. Send me your current stack, architecture, or reporting challenges and I'll tell you honestly whether I'm the right fit.
