About Andre

With 6 years of experience, I have acquired solid expertise in data management and analysis. I worked for 3 years as a relational database architect, designing and optimizing data models. I then transitioned to the role of Data Engineer for 3 years, where I built large-scale data pipelines.

In parallel, I participated in Data Science projects, applying my skills in statistical modeling and machine learning. My client experience has allowed me to develop skills in communication and project management.

Passionate about data, I am ready to take on new challenges and bring added value to your organization.
