I'm Eric Schmidt, a Data Engineer based in Brazil with extensive experience designing and deploying scalable data pipelines and modern data solutions. Currently at Wiley, I lead initiatives that modernize financial data systems and drive actionable business insights through innovative cloud-based architectures.
My career spans diverse environments—from driving pipeline development at Wiley, a global publishing powerhouse with a billion-dollar revenue and an international team focused on financial data, to thriving in the fast-paced innovation of Brazil’s EdTech startup, Fluency Academy, and further honing my expertise at major financial institutions like Bradesco and fintech software innovators such as Softpar and Ingeteam.
Grounded by a bachelor's degree in Electronics Engineering, I combine a strong technical foundation with hands-on expertise in scalable pipeline design, OLAP data modeling, and event-streaming architectures. I work proficiently with tools such as AWS Glue, Python, Snowflake, and Airflow, among others.
Programming & Scripting: Python, SQL, Bash.
Databases: Snowflake, Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, and SQLite.
Tools: AWS (Glue, Lambda, S3), Airflow, Docker, Kubernetes, Linux, pytest, Git, and WSL2.
Fluent in Portuguese and English, with intermediate proficiency in German, I thrive in international, cross-functional teams where effective communication is key to success.
