Senior Data Engineer

I spent 4 years at Two Sigma as a data engineer, working closely with quant researchers to help onboard datasets and creating tools and dashboards to help them monitor their pipelines. Highlights of my experience and expertise include ingesting and wrangling data on a large scale, cross collaborating closely with different teams to understand stakeholder requirements, and building UI dashboards or APIs to make data accessible to everyone. Aside from work, I enjoy inventing new recipes, hip hop dance, and travel - I took a personal sabbatical these past several months and traveled all over Europe! For my next role, I am looking to bring my relevant experience to a data or backend engineer role.
