  • Optimize SQL and PySpark queries for analytical performance and efficiency.
  • Implement data lineage, governance, and security protocols using enterprise-level RLS/OLS and workspace oversight.
  • Promote and improve reporting by using advanced technology, MCP-based analytics, and automation to help teams create their own reports more easily and effectively.
  • Lead platform optimization and capacity scaling initiatives for sustained reliability and performance.
  • Demonstrate advanced problem-solving, debugging, and cross-platform integration skills across hybrid data and AI ecosystems.
