About me

Hi, I’m Allen Huang. I design data architectures and build pipelines that make analytics trustworthy and fast. Whether you’re migrating to a cloud warehouse, implementing dbt, or need someone to tame flaky ETLs, I love shipping pragmatic solutions with strong testing and documentation.

  • End-to-end ownership — design → build → handover
  • Versioned, tested, observable data
  • Security & cost-conscious architectures
  • Flexible engagements: projects or retainers

How engagement works

  1. 1) Discovery

    30–45 min call to map goals, data sources, and constraints.

  2. 2) Proposal

    Scope, milestones, and success metrics. Fixed-bid or time & materials.

  3. 3) Build & handoff

    Ship iteratively, document thoroughly, and enable your team.
