Data Engineer (Contract Consultant)
Exequt · client: US medical professional liability insurer
- Led the technical audit and recovery of an AI-assisted migration from a legacy IBM i (DB2) system to a Microsoft Fabric warehouse, deployed entirely through CI/CD.
- Modelled the claims domain (claims, payments, reserves, recoveries, reinsurance, written premium) for actuarial and finance users, reconciled to the legacy system after every load.
- Cut Fabric capacity cost by ~80% by moving the always-on silver and gold layers to incremental loads on scheduled compute.
- Found that the automated parity tests mixed up measure-level and table-level reconciliation, which made the migration look more accurate than it was. Redesigned validation and widened the goal to a governed enterprise warehouse.
- Built the governance framework: load-audit and metadata tables, sensitivity and endorsement labels, and dynamic role-based access driven by Entra ID.
- Restored point-in-time recovery by enabling time-travel retention on ~95% of bronze tables.
- Owned Terraform across three roots (azurerm + Fabric) and the ticket → GitLab CI → Fabric delivery standard. Modular pipelines let a failed stage rerun on its own.

Data Engineer
Emeria, London
- Replaced Salesforce as the reporting source of truth for property data with a Snowflake warehouse consolidating Qube MRI, Reapit, DataStation and on-premises SQL Server, with Power BI reporting that saved 8 hours a week of manual processing.
- Built reusable, parameterised ELT with Fivetran metadata, dbt vars, macros and artifacts, and Python UDFs, on a medallion architecture across AWS and Microsoft stacks.
- Cut pipeline processing time by ~80% through table redesign, clustering, materialized views, parallel jobs and better orchestration.
- Introduced Kimball modelling across the organisation, cutting report load time from 2 hours to 30 minutes.
- Reduced health & safety data retrieval from 5 hours to 10 minutes with centralised reporting datasets.
- Set engineering standards for version control, testing, deployment and IaC (GitHub, Terraform, CI/CD) in line with ISO 27001 and 9001.
