What I do
Enterprise data strategy, governance frameworks, metadata management and privacy — designed to pass audit and survive growth.
Medallion architecture on Databricks and Unity Catalog: bronze ingestion, silver conformance, gold dimensional models.
AWS, Azure and Oracle Cloud migrations built on Well-Architected principles — secure, resilient and cost-aware.
Oracle RAC, Data Guard, Exadata, PostgreSQL and SQL Server — performance tuning, HA design and capacity planning.
Power BI architecture, dimensional modelling and self-service enablement so leaders get trusted numbers, fast.
Document review, completeness checks and exception handling — AI applied where it removes real administrative load.
Signature architecture
Bronze ingests raw. Silver conforms and cleans. Gold serves the business. Three layers, one governed catalog — the pattern behind every platform I ship.
Player & team dimensions, registration facts, invoice facts, executive KPI summaries.
Safe casting, null handling, text cleansing, latest-snapshot dedup, materialized views.
Auto Loader / cloudFiles, mixed encodings, repeated CSV snapshots, schema evolution.
