Experience

Data Engineer Consultant

Our future health
Apr 2023 - Present · 3 years 3 months

The organization provides the largest health data in the country for researchers around the world to protect, treat and prevent disease. I have built a data pipeline to upload and receive data to/from National Health Services in England and process the data to be sent to the trusted research environment. I have designed complex data schema and I communicate with different stakeholders to achieve the final product. I have contributed to the linkage rules between different data sets and currently working on de-identifying the data to protect users’ data privacy and prevent identifiable data from reaching not authorized users. Technologies used are Azure cloud, Databricks, Kubernetes, Docker Dagster, Airflow. PySpark, data lakes.
