Senior Analytics Engineer with 6+ years of experience across banking, consulting, financial services, and real estate — currently based in Dubai.

I've worked at ANZ Bank, KPMG, CFI, and now WASL, where I build the dashboards, data models, and reporting layers that teams actually use to make decisions.


What makes me different?

I've always sat at the intersection of data and business. I don't just write SQL and build pipelines — I work directly with Product, Marketing, and Operations teams to figure out what questions matter, then go find the answers in the data.

  • At WASL — real estate analytics: tenant segmentation, occupancy KPIs, platform migrations
  • At ANZ Bank — banking: customer onboarding, compliance dashboards, report migration
  • At KPMG — consulting: client sentiment analysis, process automation, stakeholder reporting

The domain changes, but the approach stays the same: understand the business problem first, then build the right analytical solution.


Tech I work with:

SQL · Python · Power BI · Qlik Sense · Airflow · Databricks · dbt · Azure · Microsoft Fabric

I've led platform migrations, built data validation frameworks from scratch, and contributed to AI/ML initiatives. I care about data quality — not as a checkbox, but because bad data leads to bad decisions.


What I'm looking for:

A remote Senior Data Analyst or Analytics Engineer role where I can:

  • Work cross-functionally with real impact on business outcomes
  • Be part of a team that takes data seriously
  • Thrive in a fast-paced environment where the problems aren't always well-defined

Open to fintech, proptech, SaaS, or any product-led company that values what good analytics can do.
