Principal Data Architect & Technical Leader
Visionary Data Architect with 18 years of enterprise experience driving large-scale cloud transformations and building resilient Big Data ecosystems. Proven expertise in designing highly scalable, fault-tolerant data pipelines and migration strategies across GCP and AWS environments. Adept at aligning technical roadmaps with business objectives, spearheading GenAI innovations for optimized self-service analytics, and leading high-performing engineering teams to deliver mission-critical data platforms for Fortune 500 clients.
● Enterprise Cloud Transformation: Architected and led the end-to-end GCP transformation of the legacy EWS data warehouse, migrating more than 1 Petabyte of data to BigQuery and reducing infrastructure compute costs by 30%.
● GenAI & Self-Service Analytics: Spearheaded enterprise AI initiatives by conceptualizing and developing 'D.A.V.E.', an intelligent self-service GenAI interface. This democratized data access for approximately 150 business users across the EWS Data Warehouse, reducing ad-hoc data engineering requests by 80%.
● High-Availability Ingestion Architecture: Engineered a scalable Event Management Framework and a file-based ingestion architecture using GCP Composer. This automated end-to-end data loading processes, supporting more than 50 million events/day on an average across all the EWS product domains.
● Real-Time Data Strategy: Pioneered near-real-time data replication architectures from On-premise Oracle system to GCP leveraging Striim (Data integration and streaming platform for analytics and business intelligence), achieving less than 5 second latency and ensuring highly available data access for downstream reporting.
● Data Governance & Pipeline Optimization: Standardized data delivery by implementing a Schema Registry and Dynamic Custom Extracts, streamlining data enrichment into WIDE tables for billing and accelerating query performance by 30%.
● Strategic Client Delivery: Directed the technical architecture and delivery of high-profile, high-revenue integrations, including the Amazon PHQ migration and Walmart Custom Extracts, directly impacting $2M in client revenue.
