Summary
Barry Gaffey is a Director of Technology, Data & Analytics with over a decade of experience building data platforms, cloud migrations, and BI solutions across healthcare, payer analytics, and non-profits. He blends hands-on engineering skills (Snowflake, dbt, AWS/Azure, Terraform, Airflow, Python, TypeScript) with strategic leadership to align teams around scalable, secure, and compliant data architectures. Barry has a proven track record of reducing operational turnaround times, leading Azure migrations, and implementing cross-cloud automated pipelines that improve data quality and cost efficiency. He moves seamlessly between coding, architecture, and people management—having owned critical file transfer and monitoring systems and led teams through major product transitions. Based in Massachusetts with a computer engineering background from UMass Dartmouth, he’s equally comfortable as a senior IC or manager and often surfaces pragmatic engineering fixes that yield outsized operational savings.
