Lead Data Engineer And Analytics

Computer Engineer | Data Architect | Financial Markets Specialist

Computer Engineer with a solid foundation in low-level systems (C, Assembly) and a postgraduate degree in Financial & Capital Markets. I bridge the gap between rigorous engineering and strategic financial growth. Currently leading Data Engineering and AI at vhsys, where I manage a team of 5 and architected a medallion data ecosystem on GCP.

Core Expertise:

  • Efficiency at Scale: Reduced cloud processing OPEX by 40% through advanced partitioning, clustering, and performance tuning in BigQuery and Dataform.
  • Financial Integrity: Developed an auditable, event-driven customer timeline system, serving as the Single Source of Truth (SSOT) for Board and Investor reporting.
  • Investment Insights: Former Venture Capital Analyst, performing tech due diligence and accelerating seed-stage startups.
  • Full-stack Builder: Proven track record in developing native Android apps (Java), server-side integrations (Node.js), and smart hardware firmware (C++).

I am driven by technical complexity and high-standard professional environments. I thrive in roles where I can solve deep architectural challenges while ensuring data integrity and capital efficiency.
