Profile
Analytics engineer with an MS in Computer Science and a decade of turning messy, high-stakes data into decision-ready reporting and automated pipelines. Builds clean, reliable data layers (SQL, dbt) and the pipelines that feed them (Python, Dagster), and turns them into self-serve dashboards business teams actually use. Communicates technical nuance and its business implications to department heads and executives, and drives decisions off the analysis. Comfortable owning ambiguous problems end to end, from scoping with stakeholders to shipping pragmatic, tested solutions.
Experience
Data Analyst / Analytics Engineer — JEGS High Performance
2026-02 – present
· Ohio, USA (Remote)
- Built a contribution-margin model end to end (monday.com boards -> Dagster/dbt -> Snowflake -> Sigma), replacing ~30 manual spreadsheets and surfacing true vendor margin (landed costs and vendor allowances netted against list cost) rather than COGS against retail.
- Built SKU-level returns, margin, and vendor analytics on Snowflake (layered dbt models feeding self-serve Sigma dashboards for merchandising and vendor teams); the returns workbook, with an RMA reason-code translation layer and a vendor-segmentation control for slicing returns and margin by cohort, surfaced a build-quality decline I was consulted on, informing a successful manufacturer renegotiation.
- Re-mapped JEGS's product taxonomy and end nodes to eBay's taxonomy and end nodes; the first three weeks post-launch outsold the entire prior-year month, well clear of the channel's prior growth trend.
- Created exception reports in Snowflake and Sigma that reconcile data across separate operational systems, ensuring data quality and reliability by surfacing mismatches and keeping sources consistent.
Systems Engineer — State of Vermont
2025-06 – 2026-01
· Vermont, USA
- Operated and maintained production data systems on an Adabas mainframe underpinning Medicare and Medicaid services, including monitoring, incident response, and issue resolution.
- Worked within strict information-security and access-control standards for a regulated environment handling sensitive personal data, collaborating cross-functionally to safeguard data integrity and continuity of essential public services.
Software Engineer (Freelance Consultant) — Syria Recovery Trust Fund
2024-01 – 2025-06
· Remote
- Architected, built, tested, and deployed a bespoke vendors database application (Python / Django) for the SRTF Procurement Section; UAT-accepted and deployed to the client's private server in Amman.
- Reduced the supplier-selection process from one week to one day by streamlining cross-team workflows, accelerating procurement cycles and reducing execution delays.
- Created a company-wide single-source-of-truth dataset, eliminating informational silos and reducing reliance on disparate spreadsheets.
- Hardened data integrity and auditability with input validation, output sanitisation, and role-based access control (RBAC); ensured reliability with PyTest unit and integration tests.
Graduate Teaching Assistant — Northeastern University
2023-01 – 2023-12
· Boston, MA, USA
- Led recitations and lab sections for 300+ first-year graduate students in Python and computer-science fundamentals, running sessions of up to 60, holding office hours, and providing 1:1 debugging and tutoring.
- Recognised by faculty and peers as a lead TA for pioneering post-COVID in-person office hours and well-received recitations.
- Created an inclusive, engaging learning environment, adapting explanations to students of varying backgrounds and giving feedback and feed-forward to help them build skills and confidence.
