Summary
Eka Ponkratova is a data consultant with 11 years’ experience helping startups and small businesses across Africa and the Middle East build pragmatic, production-ready data platforms. She specializes in “lean data” — her self-styled “data backpack” approach focuses on the essentials: reliable ETL, data quality, and reporting that directly supports sales, operations and finance. Her work spans analytics platform development, data migrations, data validation tools, and training client teams to own their data models and processes. Projects include credit and finance reporting for banks, pay-as-you-go solar financing platforms, and container terminal reporting—often delivered with strong data governance and security practices. Eka combines hands-on pipeline and warehouse design with practical hands-on training and documentation, ensuring solutions are sustainable after contract close. Based in Zambia, she blends international consultancy experience with a knack for simplifying onboarding and recurring data operations for resource-constrained organisations.
