Demonstrated ability to own technical decisions end\-to\-end: from architecture to production deployment
*
***\#LI*** *\-Hybrid*
**AI\-Ready Data Platform**
* Design and implement end\-to\-end ingestion pipelines from heterogeneous sources: including Snowflake, SQL Server, Excel, REST APIs, and unstructured data: into Azure Databricks
Architect and enforce Medallion Architecture (Bronze Silver* Gold) ensuring data arrives clean, validated, and fit for purpose at each layer
* Build Delta Live Tables (DLT) pipelines with declarative data quality expectations, schema evolution, and automated lineage tracking
* Implement incremental loading patterns using CDC (Change Data Capture), watermarking, and Delta Lake MERGE/UPSERT for efficient, scalable ingestion
* Enable structured and unstructured data processing: documents, Excel files, JSON, Parquet : building the foundation for AI and ML consumption
**Data Modeling \& Semantic Layer**
* Design and implement the Engineering data model: dimensional models, fact/dimension tables, and domain\-specific data marts: serving analytics, BI, ML and AI use cases
* Build a governed, reusable semantic layer on top of the Gold layer, enabling self\-service analytics through Power BI and GCP\-connected consumers
* Ensure data models are documented, versioned, and aligned to business domains within the VECE COE
**Orchestration and Data Ops**
* Build and manage Databricks Workflows with multi\-task dependencies, SLA monitoring, retry logic, and alerting
* Implement CI/CD pipelines for Databricks using Azure DevOps and GitHub Actions : including Python Wheel packaging for reusable utility libraries deployed across the platform
* Apply software engineering best practices: version control, unit testing, modular code design, and automated deployment to Dev/QA/Prod environments
* Cluster right\-sizing, DBU management, Delta table optimization (VACUUM, compaction), cost monitoring across Azure Databricks and GCP
**Data Governance \& Quality**
Implement and manage Unity Catalog for centralized data governance: three\-level namespace (catalog schema* table), fine\-grained RBAC, data masking, and audit logging
* Build data quality frameworks: rule\-based validation, deduplication, reconciliation, and anomaly detection: ensuring data arrives fit for AI/ML consumption
* Establish data lineage tracking across ingestion, transformation, and serving layers
* Govern data delivery to GCP: ensuring secure, validated, schema\-consistent outputs consumed by downstream data science and analytics teams
**AI \& Proactive Analytics Foundation**
* Design pipelines that are AI\-ready from day one: supporting structured ML feature pipelines, embedding generation, and future Vector DB integrations
* Build the data infrastructure that enables the shift from descriptive dashboards to proactive, predictive analytics
* Collaborate with Data Scientists and Analytics Engineers to ensure the Gold layer supports model training, feature stores, and real\-time inference pipelines
