WORK HISTORY
Senior Data Engineer @Birdie
London, GB
Reduced Snowflake compute costs by 55-65%, saving an estimated 50+ compute hours/month, by leading an initiative to convert 20+ dbt models from full-refresh to incremental materialization across tables processing 1.5B+ rows.Engineered near real-time Kafka pipeline processing ~3TB of medical event data from Postgres into Snowflake using WAL-based CDC with Debezium and Snowflake Kafka Connector, enabling sub-minute data latency for healthcare analytics.Enhanced deployment confidence and developer velocity across a 1,200+ model dbt project by building 7 CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions) with state-deferred testing, automated PR schema provisioning/cleanup, and a multi-tenant data breach prevention test matrix across 13 Snowflake databases.Enabled a major care partner to identify and action £3.7M in unbilled revenue by designing Looker roll-up and drill-down analytics dashboards tracking unconfirmed visits across 78 care schemes with weekly automated reporting.Resolved critical data accuracy issues in partner billing and medication reporting by fixing flawed incremental pipeline logic that silently missed historical record updates, restoring correctness across 20+ downstream models and eliminating healthcare compliance risk.Delivered a Business Continuity Plan data pipeline covering 5 critical data domains with automated freshness monitoring, by architecting the system end-to-end from requirements definition and dependency mapping through validation and a Snowflake data-sharing POC for partner delivery.
