Career

Data & AI Engineer at E-mergo

05/2024 – 05/2025

During my year at E-mergo, I embarked on an intensive learning journey, focusing on gaining practical experience and expanding my knowledge in data engineering, AI, and Azure. This period was marked by significant growth, including earning six Microsoft certifications and active involvement in various data engineering and AI-related projects. Ultimately, my deepening passion for AI over traditional data engineering led me to seek opportunities more aligned with that focus after this foundational year.

Start at E-mergo

05/2024

Began my role as officially Junior Data Engineer, kicking off a year of intensive learning and growth in data, AI, and cloud technologies.

Optimizing Promotion Procedures

06/2024 – 08/2024

Responsible for optimizing and formalizing internal promotion procedures for Qlik, PlatformManager, TimeXtender, and PowerBI, requiring technical knowledge and strategic process improvement.

AI Solution for Flex-IT

07/2024 – 08/2024

Created an AI solution by analyzing data architecture, data sources, exploring business processes, and defining the problem. Developed a business case and a design for a RAG-based LLM system, tailored to their needs, with a PoC in Azure AI Studio and Microsoft AutoGen.

Migrating Transformations (Qlik to TimeXtender)

09/2024 – 09/2024

Analyzed Qlik scripts to identify transformations and used data lineage to trace the transformed variables to their corresponding points in TimeXtender. Created new columns, applied SQL-based transformations, and ensured proper integration within the Semantic Layer in TimeXtender.

TimeXtender Setup at Eindhoven Airport

10/2024 – 10/2024

Helped set up a TimeXtender data warehouse, including configuring servers, databases, APIs, and the TimeXtender environment, using TimeXtender, SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), and Postman. Cleaned and transformed data using SQL and addressed challenges such as high-volume streaming data, incremental loading, and changing dimensions.

API Integrations & Incremental Loading

12/2024 – 01/2025

Involved in setting up connections with multiple API endpoints, combining queries, and establishing incremental data loading patterns. Further strengthened PowerBI skills.
