Top SchoolShaun Ryan is a seasoned Data Engineer with 11 years’ experience designing and delivering cloud-native data platforms, currently leading Databricks architecture and Delta Lake migrations on Azure from Bristol, UK. He combines deep hands-on skills in Spark (Databricks-certified in both Python and Scala), Kafka streaming, and Azure data services with pragmatic DevOps and production ML deployment using Docker, Kubernetes, FastAPI and MLflow.

Outside work he experiments publicly on GitHub with templates and learning projects, while his team-facing experience and senior consultancy history reflect strong delivery and stakeholder leadership.
