I build data platforms from nothing, then make sure someone other than me can run them.

I'm a senior data engineer with 9+ years of experience, focused on Snowflake, dbt, and AWS. My specialty is greenfield work: taking a platform from concept to production, and designing event-driven ingestion architecture that holds up once real, messy upstream systems start sending it data.

I'm looking for Data Architect, Lead, or Staff Data Engineer roles where the job is owning a platform end to end, architecture, build, operations, and the judgment calls about what to harden and when, not maintaining someone else's system.

I use Claude Code daily as a normal part of how I build, the same way I'd use a linter or a terminal. It's part of why I can take on an unfamiliar tool or language without treating that as a blocker.
