Jaime Meza

I'm a software engineer fueled by the ever-changing landscape of technology. The constant evolution keeps me engaged and motivates me to continuously learn and adapt within the tech industry. This drive to stay ahead of the curve is what makes me a valuable asset to any team.

With over 6 years of experience, I've built expertise across data engineering, backend development, and software architecture. I've honed my skills in Python, particularly Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) principles and the Django framework, along with a strong foundation in JavaScript with Node.js and Angular.

Beyond technical expertise, I bring leadership experience from leading and mentoring engineering teams, driving cross-functional collaboration, and delivering impactful solutions in fast-paced environments. I'm always eager to expand my knowledge base and take on new challenges.

I'm currently seeking a full-time software engineering or engineering leadership role where I can leverage my skills to contribute to a dynamic team and make a positive impact.

Software Engineer

Thrasio
  • Data Pipeline Design and Implementation

    Designed and implemented efficient and scalable data pipelines to support machine learning and analytics initiatives. Leveraged Databricks to automate the process of testing and deploying these pipelines, resulting in significant efficiency gains.

  • Collaboration with Data Science Teams

    Collaborated closely with data scientists and engineers to understand their data infrastructure needs. To empower them further, we built a custom tool that allows their code to run seamlessly as nodes within the data pipelines.

    Additionally, we implemented MLflow for robust artifact management, enabling data scientists to efficiently store, read, and write data to and from Snowflake.

  • Data Infrastructure Management

    Monitored and proactively addressed data pipeline and infrastructure issues, guaranteeing smooth data flow and system uptime.

    Implemented dbt models automated through Airflow. This approach decoupled transformation logic from the pipeline, leading to cost reductions in development and production by eliminating duplicate workloads.

  • Product Information Management Tool (PIM)

    Led a team effort with data infrastructure and product catalog engineers to expand the PIM's reach to new markets.

    Collaborated on building data pipelines using APIs, S3 buckets, dbt, and Snowflake to ensure accurate and efficient data import for the new markets.

    Integrated the imported market data seamlessly into the PIM tool, enabling product managers to efficiently update product information across these new markets.

Interests

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ)

Proud black belt here! I've been training for almost 15 years and love the challenge and discipline that BJJ offers.

Chess

I recently picked up chess about 3 years ago and find it endlessly fascinating. It's a great way to exercise my mind and strategize.

Hiking

There's nothing quite like getting outdoors and exploring nature. I enjoy hitting the trails whenever I can, soaking up the fresh air and scenery.

Video Games

When I'm looking to unwind, I enjoy playing video games.
