Senior Azure Data Engineer

Kroger
09.2024 - Current
  • Redesign Snowflake ETL framework with an event-driven Dynamic ETL Framework
  • Objectives of this new design are: transition from scheduled ETL to event-driven to eliminate delays getting data into Snowflake, Split large transactional files into multiple smaller files that can be processed into Snowflake faster, in parallel, using cheaper compute, eliminate inter-table dependencies in the bronze and silver layer, to reduce the impact zone of issues and better align processing with demand
  • Architecture & Design: Designed an event-driven ETL framework using Snowflake, integrated with cloud services such as Azure Event Grid, Snowpipe, and external stages (Azure Blob).
  • Automation & Ingestion: Implemented Snowpipe and auto-ingestion mechanisms to load files from cloud storage automatically upon arrival, significantly reducing latency.
  • Scalability & Modularity: Developed parameterized and reusable SQL and stored procedures in Snowflake for transformation logic, enabling support for multiple data sources and event types.
  • Event Orchestration: Integrated with orchestration tools such as [Apache Airflow / Azure Data Factory / AWS Step Functions], to handle event triggers, retries, and conditional flows.
  • Monitoring & Alerting: Built robust monitoring using Snowflake’s INFORMATION_SCHEMA and cloud-native tools to capture failures, monitor file loads, and send real-time alerts.
