Harish Rao is a Sr. Snowflake Data Engineer with nine years of hands-on experience designing and migrating large-scale data platforms to Snowflake on both Azure and AWS. He has led end-to-end migrations from Oracle, Hadoop, SQL Server, and Hive to Snowflake, building modular DBT models, Snowpipe/Tasks/Streams, and optimized ETL pipelines with Azure Data Factory, Matillion, and Python. Comfortable across the data stack, he pairs deep SQL and performance-tuning expertise with practical orchestration and CI/CD experience (Jenkins/Bitbucket) to deliver cost-effective, production-ready solutions. His background includes healthcare XML transformations and close collaboration with BI teams to enable Tableau reporting, showing a blend of technical rigor and stakeholder focus. With an MS in Computer Science and a track record at enterprises like Optum, Ally, and LendingTree, he reliably translates complex legacy systems into modern cloud-native analytics platforms. An often-overlooked strength is his repeated success converting procedural logic (Hive/Oracle) into maintainable Snowflake stored procedures and DBT models, reducing technical debt during migrations.
