Automox
Staff Site Reliability Engineer
Building a robust data platform to facilitate the marriage of physical and digital spaces.
* Implemented a cohesive data platform combining Apache Spark, Jupyter notebooks and Airflow tied together by a set of developers tools that leverages the company's service infrastructure tooling for orchestration and authentication.
* Proved viability of using Apache Iceberg, an evolution of Hadoop-era partitioned file formats for data warehousing. Think BigQuery- or Snowflake-scale capabilities, except cloud agnostic and built on open source technologies. Features like time travel and schema evolution provided myriad benefits to data scientists and ML engineers wanting to operate on large, evolving tables.
* Rolled out an ingestion pipeline that archives all company data in-motion from Kafka to the aforementioned data lake.
* Built out access control systems to support granular data security, incorporating concepts such as data lineage, provenance, retention policies and GDPR compliance.
