Senior Data Engineer · Lahore / Islamabad, Pakistan
Designing cloud-native data platforms on GCP, AWS, and Azure.
Senior Data Engineer with 5+ years designing and shipping production-grade data platforms across finance, spend analytics, and machine-learning domains. I focus on the layer where modelling, infrastructure, and delivery meet — dbt on the warehouse, Terraform underneath, and CI/CD wired together so every change is safe, reviewed, and reversible.
Currently at Telenor Shared Services, where I architected the TSS Data Platform on Google Cloud — a multi-domain lakehouse serving 15+ markets.
- Data platforms & modelling — dbt on BigQuery / Snowflake / Databricks, bronze / silver / gold layer contracts, semantic models, and data contracts.
- Infrastructure as code — Terraform for cloud resources, IAM, and access management, with plan-on-PR / apply-on-merge CI.
- Keyless CI/CD — GitHub Actions with Workload Identity Federation, containerised delivery, and auditable releases.
- Applied GenAI on the warehouse — vector search and embeddings for semantic matching and classification, right next to the data.
- Reliability & quality — automated testing, source freshness, observability, and documentation baked into the pipeline.
