Dmitry Braverman Cloud Data Architect
Welcome to the online home of Dmitry Braverman, a skilled and experienced Data Architect. Thank you for visiting my personal website, where I integrate my personal journey, expertise in data architecture, and diverse interests.
Personal Journey and Expertise
Growing up in the Soviet Union within a family of engineers, I developed a passion for mathematics from an early age. Pursuing this passion, I obtained a Master’s degree in Applied Mathematics from Odessa State University, specializing in subjects like Linear Algebra, Mathematical Optimization, and Cluster Analysis. This educational background laid the foundation for my career as a Data Architect.
With over a decade of experience, I have worked extensively with Cloud Platforms, Data Warehousing, and Database Development. My focus is on leveraging technology to drive innovation and optimize data-driven decision-making. Staying up-to-date with the latest advancements ensures that I provide effective solutions in the industry. My expertise includes architecting and deploying data warehouses on platforms such as Azure SQL, Snowflake, and Palantir, as well as designing robust ETL/ELT pipelines using tools like Qlik, SSIS, ADF, Databricks, and Apache Airflow.
Passion for Collaboration and Education
In addition to my professional work, I actively engage in collaboration, knowledge sharing, and education. Teaching mathematics at the Russian School of Mathematics has given me the privilege of sharing my love for the subject and fostering a strong foundation for young minds.
Interests and Hobbies
I have diverse hobbies that enhance my creativity and perspective:
- Optical Illusions: I collect and explore the captivating world of optical illusions, adding a unique dimension to my work as a Data Architect.
- History of Money: I am deeply fascinated by the history of money, particularly the intriguing phenomenon of hyperinflation. Having witnessed the collapse of the Soviet Union and the subsequent hyperinflation events across all Soviet Republics, I have been captivated by this topic. As a collector, I have amassed currencies with numerous zeros, symbolizing the dramatic devaluation and economic instability during these periods. Studying the intricacies of hyperinflation serves as a reminder of the importance of sound monetary systems and the consequences of unchecked inflation.
- Downhill Skiing: I love downhill skiing, especially on freshly groomed slopes. It give me a thrill of starting from a clean canvas and leaving my marks as I glide down the mountain. Skiing brings me a sense of adventure, connection with nature, and the joy of exploring my limits.
I am always open to collaborating with forward-thinking organizations that value a data-driven approach. Let’s connect and explore how we can leverage data to unlock new opportunities and drive growth.
