Bayer | FAIR Global Data Lake
OVERVIEW
Bayer's pharmaceuticals division, like units of most big corporations, generates lots of data but, until recently, managed to leverage only a small amount of it. Thanks to a pilot project, part of the company's advancing digital transformation initiative, it's making better use of data, and its plant in Garbagnate, Italy, has become a "lighthouse" factory teaching others how to do the same.
MY ROLE
• Built a global data lake on AWS that follows FAIR principles.
• Worked as an AWS cloud architect in a team of five for nine months.
• Used AWS, DevOps, and Terraform heavily, especially Amazon EMR, Amazon EKS, GitLab, Docker, Packer, and Terraform workspaces to maintain mature production-grade provisioning automation for the data science environment on demand.
• Worked closely with the product owner on backlog grooming, prioritization, and breakdown and supported team members technically.
• Built a multi-tenant solution to provide EMR clusters for data scientists to experiment on their datasets easily. It was challenging because of data governance, GDPR, security, and scalability of 200+ petabytes of data stored worldwide.

• Acted as a lead AWS cloud and DevOps architect in a team of seven for 12 months.
• Transformed the Siemens Simcenter simulation cluster to use Amazon EKS on AWS. The software is used to run complex simulations for engines, for example, leveraging the scale of AWS.
• Migrated the software to Kubernetes clusters on AWS and built chargeback mechanisms and disaster recovery strategies.
• Used IaC AWS CDK to automate infrastructure provisioning on AWS, including Amazon EKS cluster and Argo CD for GitOps automated deployments, Service Catalog for on-click tenant onboarding, AWS Secrets Manager, AWS Systems Manager, and AWS SSM Patch Manager for patching the instances.
• Played a key role in implementing and documenting SOC2 compliance mechanisms.
• Introduced advanced multi-tenant architecture based on Amazon EKS-managed Kubernetes clusters with chargeback mechanisms, which was never easy for large-scale HPC clusters. HPC needed excessive scaling from 20–2,000 worker nodes on demand, which was also challenging.
• Implemented an advanced auto-scaler using Karpenter.
