Databricks FinOps & Performance: Own the platform’s efficiency. Implement cluster policies, Photon engine optimisations, and cost-attribution models to ensure high performance with a focus on ROI.
Data Engineering Excellence: Standardise data engineering templates (Medallion architecture) and implement robust data modelling (Star/Snowflake, Vault 2.0) to handle structured and unstructured insurance data.
Domain Alignment: Translate complex insurance concepts (Premiums, Claims, Actuarial models) into scalable technical schemas and AI logic.




Governance & Security: Ensure all designs comply with industry regulations using Databricks Unity Catalog.

AI/ML Expertise: Proven experience building and deploying AI solutions. Deep understanding of the Agentic AI landscape—moving beyond straightforward chatbots to autonomous, goal-oriented agents.
FinOps Mastery: Specific experience in Databricks cost management, instance selection, and performance tuning (Z-Ordering, Liquid Clustering).
Data Management: Robust background in data modelling and the creation of reusable ETL/ELT templates and frameworks.
