Executive Summary & Expertise

Senior Data & AI Architect with over 6 years of experience designing enterprise-scale data and AI architectures across AWS and Azure. Author of a corporate architecture standard for AI pipelines on Azure, adopted as organizational reference. I bridge traditional Big Data with production-grade Generative AI — from Spark/Scala data platforms to Azure OpenAI-based GenAI systems operating under strict regulatory compliance (EU AI Act, High Risk classification).

Core Technical Skills

Programming & Scripting: Scala (Expert), Python (Advanced), SQL (Expert), Bash.

Big Data & Processing: Apache Spark, Hadoop, Kafka, OpenSearch, Relevancy Search, Embeddings, Vectorization.

Cloud Platforms: AWS (Redshift, Glue, EMR, Kinesis, Lambda, S3, Athena), Azure (Databricks, Data Factory), Snowflake (Full stack).

Data Orchestration: Apache Airflow, Event-Driven Architectures, CI/CD Pipelines.

AI Reference Technician & Senior Data Engineer (Naturgy, via Bluetab/IBM): Sole author of the corporate architecture standard for AI pipelines on Microsoft Azure — 43 mandatory rules, 5 reference layers, redesigning the industry's AWS reference architecture into a governed, Azure-native model. Designed and built a reusable resilience framework (retry, circuit breaking, dead-letter queue, inference traceability) for production AI systems. Delivered an EU AI Act "High Risk" GenAI pipeline (Azure OpenAI) with full inference traceability and human-in-the-loop review.

Production GenAI (Azure ecosystem): Azure OpenAI (GPT-4o/GPT-5), inference traceability & observability, prompt engineering & versioning, regulatory-compliant AI pipelines (EU AI Act High Risk).

AI & RAG (Applied Innovation): Llama 3.2 (Ollama), Semantic Chunking, OpenSearch Hybrid Search (384-d K-NN + Lexical Boosting), Streamlit, Zero-Trust Data Privacy.
Professional Experience

Senior Data & AI Engineer (Personal R&D): Architected a sovereign, local RAG platform indexing Scala libraries via Llama 3.2 (Ollama) with zero-trust data privacy. Engineered idempotent Python pipelines with semantic chunking and OpenSearch Hybrid Search.

Senior Data Engineer (WM GRUPPE): Acted as SME and Technical Reference for the entire data platform. Designed AWS DataLakeHouses using EMR, Glue, OpenSearch, and Apache Iceberg , leading technical debt refactoring and performance tuning using Scala and Apache Spark.

Senior Data Engineer (Vivo Energy): Full SDLC ownership within the Databricks ecosystem. Developed ETL processes using SQL and designed event-driven architectures for scalable client data management.

Data Engineer (Santander Bank): Developed ETL processes on Azure/Databricks with Spark for the core banking data platform and implemented event-driven orchestration architecture.

Data Engineer (Walter Scott): Designed a Snowflake-based architecture in a Cloud-Native environment with a NO-CODE approach for business users.
