--What I do-- Hi! I'm here to help engineers from other sectors make the transition into data roles. I'm an industrial engineer with my MBA and spent years in the manufacturing and education/research sectors. Even with my experience and education I really struggled to make the transition into tech (and more specifically "data" roles). It took me a few years and a lot of failures until I finally broke through. I'm here to offer my advice based on my experience of breaking through the glass barrier. My goal is to help you avoid the mistakes I made and help you transition quicker. ----- A little about me ----- I'm a husband and a father, I love football, and I'm always looking to learn new things. - Data Engineer (Azure and Snowflake certified) - 6-7+ years of technical project management experience (active PMP certification) - 12+ years of data analytics & statistics experience in a business setting ----- Currently working on ----- - Working on the Azure cloud to develop custom ai solutions for our consulting division customers. - Building Enterprise Data Warehouses in Snowflake. ----- Tech I'm most familiar with ----- - Azure - Snowflake - SQL - Python (some experience with frameworks like Flask and Django but not proficient) - REST APIs - Postman - Power BI - Excel (top 5% of 25M+ in LinkedIn Assessments) - FiveTran ----- Tech I've used in the past (but am not proficient with any) ----- - Redash - Airflow - RabbitMQ - Redis - AWS - GCP - Databricks - dbt
