José Antunes is a Senior Data Engineer with 11 years of experience building scalable data platforms and backend systems across cloud ecosystems (GCP and AWS). He has a proven track record of transforming monolithic, VM-based Python pipelines into cloud-native, dbt/BigQuery solutions—cutting processing time from eight hours to under two minutes. Comfortable across Python and Go, José has shipped production microservices, serverless ETL, and data quality automation while mentoring and growing engineering teams. He combines hands-on engineering with product-minded thinking from his co-founder experience at SurgeonMate and builds side projects like Boulderbook to apply user-facing design to technical work. Known for pragmatic architecture choices and strong remote collaboration, he prioritises trust in systems and teams to deliver reliable, maintainable pipelines. His background in engineering physics and research-driven instrumentation hints at a rigorous, measurement-focused approach to problem solving.
