Sherif Gamal - Data Engineer
Transforming data into actionable insights and scalable solutions.
About Me: Data Engineering Meets Freelance Freedom
🌟 Hi, I’m Sherif, a Data Engineer with a strong foundation in Industrial Engineering and specialized training in Microsoft Data Engineering (DEPI). My passion lies in helping businesses transform messy, scattered, or overwhelming data into clear, structured, and actionable insights. From the very beginning of my journey, I was fascinated by how systems work, how processes can be optimized, and how the right information at the right time can change everything. That curiosity led me to Industrial Engineering, and later, to Data Engineering — where I discovered the power of data to drive smarter decisions and open new opportunities for businesses of every size.
💡 Why work with me? Because I don’t just “build pipelines” or “write queries.” I partner with you to understand your challenges, whether it’s dealing with unorganized data, inefficient workflows, or slow reporting systems — and I create tailored solutions that actually solve problems, not just tick boxes.
✨ What makes me different is not only my technical skills but my mindset. I see data projects as partnerships — your success is my success. I take time to listen, ask questions, and fully understand your goals. Then I design solutions that are efficient, scalable, and aligned with your business vision.
🌍 Whether you’re a startup needing to set up your first data pipeline, a growing business looking to automate reports, or an established company aiming to move your workflows to the cloud, I’ll bring dedication, problem-solving, and clear communication to the table.
