Bank of America - Data Lineage Platform (SALT)

Led core modernization of Bank of America’s SALT data lineage platform, unifying 50+ YAML configs into a JSON‑driven pipeline and refactoring legacy code for up to 95% faster runtimes. Designed a metadata versioning solution that cut storage by 90% and improved write performance by 75%, enabling scalable adoption across 50+ integrated systems.

Mastered the SALT data lineage platform and grew into core development responsibilities within weeks, moving from tool usage to owning critical pipeline components. Redesigned and unified the injection pipeline by replacing 50+ fragmented YAML configurations with a centralized JSON‑driven configuration model, significantly improving maintainability, reliability, and onboarding for new systems. Refactored 20–30 legacy functions to align with SOLID and PEP 8 standards, achieving up to 95% faster runtimes while reducing technical debt and clarifying ownership across teams.

Architected a scalable data versioning solution for metadata injection that eliminated full duplication per scan, reducing storage usage by 90% and increasing write performance by 75%. This prevented exponential database growth and stabilized performance as adoption expanded to 50+ integrated systems. Initiated SDLC improvements by pushing for CI/CD adoption, stronger testing practices, and cross‑functional collaboration with platform, data, and UI teams, accelerating delivery while improving overall system quality and observability.
