Building scalable Data Platforms • FinOps-Driven Architecture • AI Applied to Business
I am a Data Engineer and AI Consultant specialized in structuring data areas from scratch, transforming fragmented environments into scalable, governed and cost-efficient data platforms.
My focus is not only building pipelines — it is designing sustainable data ecosystems aligned with business strategy.
I work at the intersection of:
• Data Engineering
• Cloud Architecture
• FinOps
• Governance & Observability
• AI for Business Decision-Making
- Architecture design (Lakehouse / Medallion)
- Batch & Streaming pipelines
- Data quality & validation layers
- Anonymization & governance strategies
- Metadata catalog & discovery integration
- Documentation standards & access policies
- Cloud cost reduction strategies
- Real-time monitoring & optimization
- Workload right-sizing
- Architecture decisions driven by efficiency
Well-architected data is not expensive. Poor architecture is.
- Executive alignment meetings
- Team onboarding & role definition
- Evangelization of data ownership
- Decision-making frameworks supported by analytics
- Clear definition of responsibilities across the data lifecycle
Technology alone does not transform companies. Culture does.
