Porto Alegre, Brazil · Remote
Senior data engineer with 15+ years delivering end-to-end pipelines, BI platforms and data lake architectures for large enterprises across Brazil, France, Germany, Spain, India and China.
I have a proven track record on large-scale, multi-country deployments — including a BI platform for 700+ facilities of a European parking operator in France, and a global analytics solution for an industrial multinational spanning 6 countries.
I'm a Databricks Certified Data Engineer Professional (the most advanced Databricks certification, held by under 3% of candidates globally) and a Microsoft Certified Fabric Data Engineer. I work in English with international, cross-functional teams daily, and lived and worked in Paris from 2022 to 2024.
I created Brains Up Analytics to focus my consulting work and share knowledge — through technical articles and e-books in Portuguese, English and French.
