About me
Intro
I’m a data engineer and AI practitioner who turns messy inputs into reliable insights. Recently, I built automated ETL/ELT pipelines with Azure Data Factory and Databricks that cut processing time by 40 % and eliminated 90 % of data‑quality errors. I’ve designed Medallion Architecture frameworks, enforced validation for 90 %+ data reliability and used GitHub Actions for CI/CD. As an AI & Data Analyst at a MedTech startup, I cleaned and labeled multimodal audio/video data, extracted facial and vocal features for emotion‑recognition models and wrote preprocessing scripts to meet privacy and regulatory standards. My toolkit includes Python (Pandas, PySpark), SQL, Azure ML, Delta Lake, Databricks, cloud data warehousing, Git, PyTorch, FastAPI and Power BI. Let’s connect if you’re working on scalable, ML‑ready data pipelines.

A research-driven software consultancy delivering scalable enterprise digital solutions and AI-powered products. I built automated ETL/ELT pipelines on Azure Data Factory and Databricks, cutting manual processing time by 40 % through Delta Lake. I designed Medallion Architecture pipelines that turned raw sensor data into reliable safety analytics, eliminating 90 % of data‑quality errors and deploying validation layers that delivered 90 %+ data reliability for high‑stakes decisions. I also architected scalable ingestion frameworks using Azure ML and Databricks to handle high‑volume distributed datasets and reduce reporting latency, and established CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions to automate code deployments and streamline development. Automated deployment workflows using GitHub Actions, integrating CI/CD patterns to streamline data processing and prepare for orchestrated scaling.
