Hi, I’m Mustafa Ahmed. I’m a Big Data Engineer with hands-on experience designing, deploying, and managing scalable data solutions. I specialize in architecting end-to-end data pipelines and building high-availability production systems using the Hadoop ecosystem, Kafka, and IBM Watsonx.data to turn raw data into actionable business insights. Most recently at WOREX Technology, I led the development of near real-time data platforms, optimized Spark workloads, implemented containerized deployments, and advanced data governance and customer segmentation on the Cloudera platform. Previously, at the Ministry of Defense Egypt, I modernized legacy data workflows and improved SQL/data processes to boost operational efficiency. I enjoy collaborating with teams to translate business needs into robust data architectures and to enable informed decision-making through reliable data pipelines.
