• Built 70+ of the 110 Airflow DAGs maintained on GCP Composer for a digital advertising company. • Built Apache Beam / Dataflow pipelines for terabyte-scale workloads and streaming Pub/Sub data. • Evaluated and prototyped multiple BI platforms before driving adoption of Holistics as a cost-effective semantic-layer alternative to Looker for scalable enterprise reporting. • Designed and developed a new star-schema data model in BigQuery, replacing a legacy architecture of hundreds of report-specific tables with about 40 tables and simplifying maintenance. • Redesigned and optimised legacy ETL queries to reduce processing overhead, pipeline failures, and backfill requirements, and implemented built-in error checks and alerts to improve pipeline reliability. • Migrated 30+ legacy Looker Studio reports to Holistics, consolidating standalone reports into a centralised, drill-through reporting experience that improved navigation and usability. • Designed analytical solutions on my own initiative that enabled richer user analysis, expanded segment targeting and predictive modelling population by 6x, and supported adaptation to new PII regulations.
