About Lauren Rich
I’m a technical architect and data engineer with 15+ years of experience making complex systems work where it counts: in production, under pressure, and in the real world.I specialize in data architecture, cloud platforms, and enterprise retail planning systems. My recent toolkit includes Azure SQL and Data Factory, Databricks, ELT pipelines, the ELK stack, Python, and Apache Spark, and I’m not afraid to break out a statistical sampling method or two when the situation calls for it. I’ve delivered scalable solutions across industries, contributed to peer-reviewed research, and once helped define data quality standards before most teams even had one.I don’t just “support implementation.” I translate business messes into clean, deployable architecture. I work shoulder-to-shoulder with stakeholders, troubleshoot in live fire, and help systems stick the landing, even when the blueprints weren’t built for it.Certified in Azure Data Fundamentals. Published in women-in-tech research. Still pushing to make space for others while holding my own.
