• Implementing data transformations using Delta Lake to ensure reliable, performant datasets
• Managing governance and security using Unity Catalog (permissions, lineage, metadata)
• Operationalizing workloads through orchestration (Databricks Jobs, DLT, structured streaming)
• Ensuring pipelines are production-ready through monitoring, error handling, and performance tuning
• Supporting automation and CI/CD practices to enable controlled deployments and lifecycle management in Azure

Data engineering & platform development

• Experience designing scalable data pipelines (e.g., bronze/silver/gold architecture)
• Working with both batch and streaming data processing
• Building modular and reusable transformation frameworks

Governance & security
