- Build and maintain ELT/ETL pipelines that move data from messy source systems into clean, tested, documented models using dbt and Python
- Design star schema and medallion architecture data models that keep "revenue" meaning the same thing across every dashboard
- Build AI-powered data tooling — pipeline debuggers, GDPR compliance checkers, cost monitors, observability layers
- Handle GDPR/DSGVO compliance across data pipelines — PII classification, retention policies, audit trails
- Deploy serverless data infrastructure on AWS using Terraform and GitHub Actions CI/CD
- Recently obsessed with: DuckDB, Apache Iceberg, RAG pipelines for data engineering, and the idea that you shouldn't need a $50k/month warehouse to query a lot of data
