Edwin Lobos

As a seasoned Data Engineer with 7 years working with C#, Python, Node.js, cloud architecture, SQL, ETL/ELT pipelines, and databases, I bring a wealth of experience in designing and implementing scalable and efficient solutions. I am most comfortable with Azure infrastructure, with AWS a close second. My experience in software development, combined with my understanding of data modeling and architecture, has prepared me to address complex data engineering challenges head-on. I have a proven record of accomplishment in setting up and supporting end to end source code for backend web services and data storage solutions, as well as integrating data from various sources and ensuring data governance and security practices (I.e., HIPAA, SOC2). As a firm believer in continuous improvement, I try to follow changing trends and advancements in software/data engineering and cloud technology.
