Mirza Hammad Tariq, Data & Automation Engineer
Data & Automation Engineer with 5+ years on AWS: ETL pipelines, backend APIs and automation workflows in Python, SQL and FastAPI, built to cost less to run.
I'm a Data & Automation Engineer with 5+ years building production ETL pipelines, cloud data warehouses, backend APIs and automation workflows on AWS. I work remotely with teams worldwide and have delivered end-to-end across banking, utilities, aerospace and FMCG.
My sweet spot is AWS data engineering: ETL/ELT orchestration, Redshift and Snowflake warehouses, and pipelines that are cost-conscious by default and honest about their own data quality. Recent work includes a tier-1 bank's Sybase-to-Redshift migration and cutting an AWS Glue bill without touching business logic.
