Summary
Joel Macey is a Senior Data Engineer with nine years' experience designing cloud-native, serverless data platforms and repeatable pipelines across higher education, government, sports, and consumer goods. He combines hands-on AWS engineering (Lambda, Glue, S3, Step Functions, DynamoDB) with team leadership—having led delivery and L&D efforts to uplift platform capability and certifying colleagues in cloud fundamentals. Joel has driven data modernization at scale, from building streaming analytics and lakehouse architectures to exposing first‑party consumer journeys and integrating LLMs to automate workflows. Based in Hamburg, he pairs pragmatic cost-optimization instincts with a developer background in Node.js and web technologies, making him comfortable bridging frontend, CI/CD and backend data concerns. A natural teacher and consultant, he’s equally at home mentoring teams, scoping client projects, and shipping production systems that balance security, performance and maintainability.
