Senior🎓
Top SchoolAdam Spain is a Senior Data Engineer with a decade of experience building scalable, reliable data pipelines and migrations across cloud platforms. He has a strong track record at companies like GoodRx, Flywheel Digital, Astronomer, and Verizon Media where he designed ETL pipelines, led cross-database migrations (MySQL, Postgres, Redshift, Snowflake), and integrated Airflow with cloud and orchestration technologies. Adam combines hands-on SQL and Python data wrangling with operational improvements—CI/CD, custom Airflow operators, alerting, and automated metadata retention—that measurably boosted pipeline reliability and efficiency. He mentors engineers, champions documentation, and translates customer needs into product improvements from onboarding to production. Based in Baltimore, he pairs an early finance/MIS background with deep engineering chops to bridge business requirements and technical execution. An underrated strength is his consistent focus on operational tooling and observability that prevents problems before they surface.
