   At Lazydays RV, one of the largest RV dealership networks in the U.S, I delivered secure, scalable, and optimized data solutions using Azure. In Azure Data Factory (ADF), I built ETL/ELT pipelines with Copy Data, Mapping Data Flows, Lookup, ForEach, Conditional activities, scheduled triggers, and event triggers, implementing incremental loads with CDC and watermarking to reduce execution time. In Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 (ADLS), I implemented a medallion architecture (Bronze, Silver, Gold layers) with RBAC, ACLs, hierarchical namespaces, partitioning, compaction, and lifecycle policies for governance and performance. In Azure Databricks, I developed PySpark pipelines for explodes, pivots, joins, window functions, deduplication, surrogate key generation, and SCD Type 2 handling, leveraging Delta Lake ACID transactions, schema evolution, Z-Ordering, Optimize, Vacuum, and Delta Live Tables (DLT) to process batch and streaming workloads. I integrated Azure SQL Managed Instance (MI) with ADF and Databricks using private endpoints, VNet gateways, and linked services, enabling CDC ingestion, bulk copy, stored procedures, and schema validation. In Azure Synapse Analytics, I developed pipelines with PolyBase, external tables, dedicated SQL pools, columnstore indexes, distribution keys, materialized views, and workload groups, improving query performance by 25–30%. In Power BI, I engineered semantic models with DirectQuery, Import, hybrid storage, RLS, OLS, incremental refresh, DAX measures, KPIs, and hierarchies, delivering dashboards for sales, service, finance, and executives. I enforced security with AAD, Key Vault, RBAC, monitored pipelines with Azure Monitor, Application Insights, Logic Apps, and managed deployments with Git, Azure Repos, and Azure DevOps CI/CD. This unified platform reduced runtimes by 30%, improved analytics by 25%, and delivered real-time dashboards that strengthened operations, customer engagement, and financial reporting.
