Summary
Daniel B is a Senior Data Engineer based in Seattle with 13 years of hands-on experience across data engineering, test automation, and quality assurance at companies including Disney, WarnerMedia/HBO, and Amazon. He brings strong Java and JavaScript/TypeScript skills, a functional-programming mindset, and a history of building custom test frameworks, messaging test infrastructure, and QA automation for consumer products like Amazon Echo. Comfortable collaborating with cross-functional teams, he has supported frontline data engineers, validated DB procedures and user metrics, and designed scalable, measurable testing strategies that reduce risk. Now focused on data engineering at Disney, he blends platform tooling expertise with a pragmatic approach to observability and verification. Outside work he’s an avid runner who treats half-marathons and 5Ks as a regular training ground for discipline and resilience—he’s also unusually picky about pizza toppings (porcini, bacon, spinach). He prefers personal outreach over automated messages, signaling a communicative, detail-oriented partner for technical collaborations.
