Wayne Taylor is a senior data platform leader with 10+ years building cloud-native data ecosystems and governance at scale, currently leading Data Platform & Governance for TAG - The Aspen Group in Los Angeles. He combines hands-on technical direction—driving Python development, Airflow and dbt pipelines, BigQuery/Dataflow operations, and Terraform IaC—with strategic oversight of cross-brand data strategy, CapEx/OpEx planning, and stakeholder alignment. His teams have delivered multi-million dollar savings through platform efficiency and modern governance tooling like Atlan, while standardizing data ownership across five brands. Prior roles at G2 and Gogo show a track record of implementing Snowflake, migrating ETL to Python, and deploying distributed analytics stacks that improved reliability and cost-efficiency. Always curious and a lifelong learner (experimenting with .NET Windows Forms, Angular, and MiniAPIs on GitHub), he blends pragmatic engineering with operational rigor to make data both trustworthy and actionable.
