Summary
Valentin Paul is a Data Architect with 11 years of experience designing and operationalizing data platforms, currently based in Compiègne, France. He blends deep hands-on skills in PySpark, SQL, Airflow and Terraform with cloud expertise on Azure, and is a recognized Snowflake and Databricks expert who has led migrations, cost monitoring and productionization at enterprise scale. Valentin has driven large Airflow deployments (0 to 204 DAGs, 20k+ tasks/day) and built observability for Databricks platforms while coaching and leading engineering teams. Equally comfortable writing production code and defining architecture, he focuses on optimizing data implementations for cost, reliability and governance. Outside the obvious technical breadth, he pairs early-stage product experience (co‑founder and mobile app CTO) with formal training in math and computer science, which informs his pragmatic, metrics-driven approach to data engineering.
