About Max Zakharov

With over two decades of experience in data warehousing, ETL, and database development—much of it in financial services—I specialize in building scalable, secure, and performance-driven data solutions. Throughout my career, I’ve worked on high-impact projects across investment banking, wealth management, regulatory reporting, and liquidity management, leveraging my deep technical knowledge and strategic insight to deliver value in complex environments. In recent years, I’ve led a cloud migration project to Azure, ensuring seamless transitions and optimizing our data handling. My expertise includes using Databricks and PySpark to enhance processing speed and reliability, adapting legacy systems to modern data solutions. A certified interviewer, I actively support hiring for technical roles in the US and Europe, bringing my industry insight to recruiting top talent. Known for my analytical thinking, hands-on technical skills, and dedication to continuous learning, I’m now seeking to contribute to projects focused on data engineering, cloud solutions, and financial technology.
