How I work
Reliability over speed
A pipeline that processes data correctly 100% of the time is more valuable than one that processes it twice as fast with silent failures. I build observability in from the start, not as an afterthought.
Cost-conscious by default
Cloud costs compound quickly without intent. I think about query efficiency, partition strategies, and data lifecycle from the design phase — not after someone gets a billing alert.
Infrastructure as code
If it can't be reviewed, version-controlled, and reproduced, it's a liability. Terraform for infrastructure, dbt for transformations, Airflow for orchestration — all of it in source control.
Documentation that lasts
I write documentation for the next person who has to understand the system at 2am when something breaks. The goal is clarity, not coverage. One sentence that explains the why beats five that describe the what.
