The problem

Each team worked from its own extracts, so the same metric could show different numbers in different meetings.

What I built

  • Ingested 10+ siloed plant sources with PySpark into Delta Lake on Azure Databricks.
  • Modeled shared tables for production, quality and maintenance, with data-quality checks.
  • Made the lakehouse the base for every later dashboard, assistant and model.
