Data platforms · quality · scale

Governed pipelines at lakehouse scale—with proof in the metrics.

I lead complex ingestion, validation, and migration work where slip-ups hit compliance, latency, or downstream trust. I optimize for durable patterns, not heroics.

What I do

  • Own Unity Catalog (UC) and pipeline behavior end-to-end: contracts, validation, and who is on the hook when data drifts.
  • Design lakehouse-scale ingestion—Graph-to-object storage automation, orchestrated regional loads (e.g. Germany Lauertaxe), and throughput that survives real-world variance.
  • Cut operational drag: bulk processing down ~90%, pipeline waits down ~95%, and troubleshooting log volume down 90%+ when we instrument the right signals.
  • Run migration and validation programs (e.g. UC migration with automated checks) so cutovers are boring—in a good way.

Proof

Numbers from delivery work—your mileage varies by stack, but the direction was consistent.

  • ~95%

    Pipeline wait reduction

    After addressing ConcurrentAppendException-class contention and write patterns.

  • ~90%

    Bulk processing time

    Faster runs on heavy batches after structural fixes and tuning.

  • ~70%

    Workload reduction

    Less manual toil when validation and ingestion are automated and observable.

  • 90%+

    Log noise cut

    Fewer ad-hoc log dives when signals map to real failure modes.

Certifications & callouts: Takeda client certification; Mexico leadership commendation; triple stack of core cloud / data platform credentials.

Featured work

View all projects

  • Iberia validation framework

    Regional rollout guardrails: automated checks so Iberia pipelines did not ship blind.

  • Graph API → S3 automation

    Reliable object-landed datasets with less manual intervention and clearer failure surfaces.

  • UC migration & validation automation

    Migration path with validation built in—ownership and quality visible in UC, not in tribal knowledge.

What I’m building next

Product-shaped ideas grounded in delivery pain I have seen at scale.

  • Coming soon

    Lineage & ownership console

    UC-aware view of who owns what, what validated last, and which pipelines feed critical tables—built for ops reviews, not slides.

  • Coming soon

    Regional rollout playbook

    Checklists and automation hooks distilled from Iberia-style rollouts: gates, sign-offs, and rollback triggers in one place.

  • Coming soon

    Signal-first runbooks

    Turn the 90%+ log-noise reduction idea into templates: map failures to signals, cut triage time without adding dashboard debt.
