Project history
Partner with data, architecture and business stakeholders to analyse billing and usage logs across ENGIE's data ecosystem and define adoption, cost and operational KPIs for the 2026 architecture modernisation programme. Design and deploy scalable Databricks and Delta Lake pipelines for ingestion, transformation and delivery of curated enterprise datasets. Enable Databricks SQL and Power BI dashboards for decision-makers. Lead technical design discussions translating business needs into data-quality, accessibility, reusable data-product and architecture decisions.
Worked with operational stakeholders to translate service-quality reporting needs into production data solutions covering passenger experience and outsourced services. Designed and maintained pipelines ingesting, cleaning and standardising data from multiple sources; automated quality controls and optimised orchestration for BI consumption. Mentored engineers on pipeline best practices and aligned data delivery with business reporting expectations.
