As a Technology Specialist at the AWS Data Strategy team, I focus on helping enterprises become more data- and insight-driven by strategizing and deploying modern data architectures that enable modern data communities of de-centralized data producers & consumers, through the development of valuable and feasible data strategies and roadmaps based on their strategic business objectives, and to realize business value through the usage of Data, Analytics and Machine Learning services on AWS. My goal is to make Data Lakes and AIML Projects ROI-positive, so that customers recognize Data as an asset and Analytics projects as undeniable investment opportunities necessary to any company that aims to succeed in this digital era.

Principal Solution Architect at the SAP Partner SA team, SAP Beyond Infrastructure practice. Responsible for architectural best practices and guidelines for customers & partners building data engineering and analytics pipelines for SAP applications on AWS.

Providing GTM and technology guidance to Tachyonix, an Israel-based startup creating Low-Code/No-Code solutions for Fiori apps on SAP applications.

As a chief architect on the SAP Platform & Technologies Global Center of Excellence (P&T GCOE), I support our customers in their digital transformation journey through data-centric innovation, centered around the SAP Business Transformation Platform (BTP), a comprehensive framework to add value to business processes through technology. Within the BTP, I am particularly engaged with the SAP HANA Cloud Services (HCS), the next generation of SAP data & analytics capabilities on a cloud-native infrastructure, powered by all hyperscalers (AWS, Azure, GCP, AliCloud). HCS includes SAP HANA Cloud, SAP Data Warehouse Cloud (DWC), SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) and SAP Data Intelligence (DI). These services include all the capabilities required for building comprehensive data & analytics platforms, including a cost-effective, multi-tier, auto-scaling data management platform; data modeling for traditional (BI) and advanced (AI & ML) analytics and; visualization & self-service analytics.The typical problems I aim to solve are related to designing & building cloud data warehouses, data lakes and DS/ML platforms, covering all cloud hyperscalers but also other cloud data platforms (Snowflake, Databricks etc.), specially in the context of adding advanced analytics-powered insights to traditional business processes. Example scenarios are:• embedding non-linear programming (NLP) capabilities for solving complex demand planning & supply chain optimization problems in SAP IBP;• training a pricing optimization algorithm and deploying it back within SAP SD's pricing engine for transparent, embedded price optimization, and;• augmenting a production quality monitoring app with IT (SAP and non-SAP) & IoT data for real-time insights onto defective products in support of cost-based, data-driven decision making (discard or continue production), minimizing financial losses, avoiding manufacturing line downtime & saving raw materials.

Together with the Presales Specialists and Value Engineers, we're able to provide strategic information on the positioning for complex opportunities and help a smooth sales lifecycle from opp identification to maturation and closing.
