David Lee is a Staff Data Engineer with a decade of experience building data platforms and pipelines that unlock business value for a wide spectrum of consumers. He blends hands-on expertise in Python, AWS, Snowflake and streaming systems with leadership roles from senior engineer to engineering manager at fintech and HR tech firms like Uplift and Justworks. A recovering academic with a PhD in Biomedical Engineering, he brings rigorous experimental skill—evidenced by peer-reviewed publications and a data-engineering fellowship project that processed EEG at 120k events/sec—to practical production systems. His background in IT governance and PPM consulting gives him a rare combination of technical depth and product-minded process discipline, and outside work he pursues jazz and culinary interests that inform a creative approach to problem solving.
