About
Esteban is a Senior Data & BI Architect and GCP Platform Owner at Turn River Capital, a US private equity firm. With 17.6 years of experience, he serves as the technical owner of the full GCP data stack, leading a three-person data team. He oversees BigQuery, Cloud Functions, Cloud Run, Cloud Scheduler, and Cloud Storage, and manages production Python ETL pipelines. He brings over eight years of end-to-end data and reporting platform ownership. His career arc includes roles as a Solution Architect at Turing and a Senior Data & BI Engineer at Rockwell Automation, following a significant tenure as a Senior Business Analyst at American Express. Esteban's journey into data began with an internal opportunity at American Express, transitioning from customer care. He made a dedicated shift into IT at Rockwell Automation after self-investing in courses. Esteban holds an Advanced Technician in Journalism from TEA (2012), a background he credits for his investigative approach to data, especially when diagnosing conflicting dashboard numbers. Esteban seeks roles that blend his technical expertise with business understanding. He thrives on translating data insights for stakeholders, understanding their needs, and mentoring team members. He enjoys building pipelines, writing scripts, and performing code reviews, but finds particular satisfaction in bridging the gap between complex data and strategic decision-makers.
