Top SchoolJosh Sheldon is a data engineer with nine years of experience turning complex people and health datasets into actionable insights, metrics, and production pipelines.

At CarMax he led a Lakehouse ingestion pattern and an AI chatbot POC that helped define the company’s AI-ready data strategy while delivering significant operational savings.
