New Data Architecture
I supported the company in building a new data architecture in two stages for data ingestion automation, storing all the data in one data warehouse and supporting the data analysis team to focus on the business intelligence side.
In the first stage, we made the data available for data analysts as soon as possible using Fivetran and storing it in Snowflake.
In the second stage, we built custom connectors using Airflow and implemented more organized data modeling with dbt and SQL.
