Hi everyone,

My name is Wiliam Rosa, and I’m based in São Paulo, Brazil.

I currently work as a consultant in Data Engineering for large enterprises in Brazil and multinational companies, delivering scalable solutions and working mainly with Databricks, AWS, and Azure platforms. Some of my projects include work with major companies such as DELL, NTT, TIVIT, Raia Drogasil, Dasa, Livelo, Ambev, Bradesco Bank, and Itaú Bank.

The feature I’m most thankful for in Databricks is the seamless integration with the broader Azure ecosystem, especially the ability to unify ETL, data quality, and ML pipelines in a single platform. It has been key for driving scalable data solutions across different enterprises.

Looking forward to connecting with all of you and exchanging experiences in this community! :rocket:

Hello,

My name is Gustavo, and I currently live in Paraná, Brazil.

I am currently working as a data engineer in consulting, on data platforms for companies in the banking and financial sector, working with cloud tools such as Azure and AWS, as well as Databricks, of course.

A very attractive feature that has been quite interesting is the construction of declarative pipelines with Spark. Although I have not yet built corporate applications with the tool, my studies have shown that it has many advantages.
