Background

About Alberto C.

I’m a Senior Data Engineer specialising in cloud-native data platforms, machine learning deployment, and scalable infrastructure. I design and build systems that turn raw data into reliable, production-ready insights, with a focus on performance, maintainability, and business impact.My work spans GCP (and some AWS), Terraform, serverless architectures, and end-to-end ML workflows across ingestion, transformation, and deployment layers. I regularly bridge data science and engineering teams by delivering platforms that support real-time analytics, experimentation, and rapid iteration.I also make extensive use of modern AI tools to accelerate development. This includes using LLMs to streamline boilerplate work, validate design choices, improve documentation quality, and increase overall delivery speed. This approach allows me to focus more on high-value architectural decisions and problem-solving while reducing turnaround time for complex projects.Recent work includes:• Building data and analytics infrastructure for a fintech company, enabling reliable reporting, clearer customer insights, and more informed decision-making at the stakeholder level.• End-to-end pipelines with BigQuery, Cloud Functions, Pub/Sub, and Terraform• ML model deployment with CI/CD, container orchestration, versioned releases, and experience using MLflow for experiment tracking• Structuring data platforms for agility, auditability, and fast iterationI also share what I learn through writing, focusing on practical approaches to building modern, cloud-based data and ML platforms.
