📊 About Me
Hi, I'm Raymond, a Data Engineer from Chicago, IL. I'm passionate about building efficient data pipelines, developing data governance, and driving insights with analytics. I love working with data and the technology surrounding it.
🔎 What do I do?
I'm a Financial Applications Data Engineer at leading law firm, Mayer Brown LLP in Chicago. What does that really mean though? Basically, I help the firm manage its financial data. We have a lot of data and info!I manage data pipelines, optimize SQL processes, and ensure data integrity for financial systems. I work with Power BI, Azure, and Fabric to deliver reliable financial reporting. Since our attorneys and partners need information, I support billing, time tracking, and finance to drive data-driven decisions.I also work with data governance. While it's always been an interest, my current role really requires a lot of thought with data governance. We have a tremendous amount of sensitive and private data. Part of my work is to develop best practices and guardrails around that data.
