About Jose

Do you need to build a data platform, modernize your architecture, or implement a data governance strategy?

I help companies turn their data into a reliable and scalable asset through data engineering solutions, cloud architectures, and data governance.

I have over 10 years of experience designing and implementing data platforms on Microsoft Azure, Microsoft Fabric, Databricks, Snowflake, and SQL Server. I have participated in projects covering the entire data lifecycle: ingestion, transformation, modeling, analytics, and visualization in Power BI.

I can help you with projects such as:

• Design and implementation of modern data platforms.
• Migration to Microsoft Fabric, Azure, or Snowflake.
• Development of scalable ETL/ELT processes.
• Semantic modeling and Power BI optimization.
• Data architecture consulting.
• Data Governance implementation (DAMA, Microsoft Purview, OpenMetadata, DataHub, and similar tools).
• Performance optimization on SQL Server and analytical platforms.
• Mentoring and technical training for data teams.

My way of working is based on three principles:

1 - Simple and maintainable solutions.
2 - Data quality and traceability from the source.
3 - Deliverables focused on providing business value, not just technological solutions.

If you are looking for a profile that combines architectural vision with technical implementation capability and experience leading data projects, I would be delighted to collaborate.
