About Vinodh S.

I partner with enterprise leaders to modernize their data and AI foundations, turning fragmented data ecosystems into scalable, governed platforms that drive measurable business outcomes.As a Solutions Architect at Databricks, I work with high-growth and emerging enterprise organizations to design and execute lakehouse strategies that unify data engineering, analytics, governance, and AI on a single platform. My focus is not just architecture, but business alignment, helping executive stakeholders accelerate innovation, improve operational efficiency, and unlock real-time intelligence.Prior to Databricks, I served as a Staff Data Architect at FanDuel, where I led enterprise-scale initiatives across Customer 360 and Transaction 360. I designed cross-domain data models and lakehouse-ready architectures that unified customer behavior across Sportsbook, Casino, and Fantasy, enabling personalization, risk management, and data-driven growth at scale.Earlier in my career at McKinsey & Company, I drove global data and analytics transformations for commercial banking clients. I partnered with senior stakeholders to architect modern data platforms, operationalize analytics, and deliver high-impact data products grounded in engineering excellence and governance.Across roles, I operate at the intersection of strategy and execution, translating complex technical landscapes into clear architectural roadmaps, aligning cross-functional teams, and building durable data foundations that scale with the business.I believe modern data platforms are not infrastructure projects; they are strategic enablers of competitive advantage.
