Summary
Douglas Lautzenheiser is a Technical Consultant based in Cincinnati with 12 years of recent experience and a 30-year track record modernizing analytics, BI, cloud, and data platforms for Fortune 500 and other large organizations. He combines hands-on engineering (R, Python, SQL, Java/C++), data platform expertise (Snowflake, Synapse, Teradata, Redshift, Kafka) and solution architecture to deliver measurable outcomes—one automation approach he led saved a client roughly $4M and won Computerworld recognition. A repeat practice builder and former director at multiple software firms, he pairs pre-sales evangelism and delivery leadership with practical automation that accelerates legacy-to-modern migrations. Douglas also brings a founder’s mindset from running Partner Intelligence and an early entrepreneurial project that anticipated graph-style search and dynamic SQL-driven inference long before mainstream social-data and cloud tooling. He mentors teams, teaches custom training, and remains a freelance “free agent” who steps in to define, lead, or augment complex enterprise initiatives.
