Description

Data Engineer and Python Developer with a PhD in Astrophysics and strong experience in Python, SQL, data processing, statistical analysis, and software development. I build reliable data pipelines, automate data workflows, validate complex datasets, and develop practical solutions for analytics and reporting. My recent projects include AWS cloud pipelines, dbt and Snowflake data modeling, REST APIs, CI/CD automation, and a RAG-based document search application. I work analytically, communicate clearly, and focus on delivering maintainable solutions that create real value for clients.
