Migration risk review
A dependency map, blocker inventory, and prioritized recovery plan tied to affected business workflows.

Data migration rescue
Give a stalled migration a credible path forward.
I help teams recover data migrations when the deadline is approaching, the results do not reconcile, or production continuity is at risk. The first task is to make the failure modes visible and agree on what a safe next step looks like.
When to bring me in
When moving the data is only part of the problem.
A migration can look nearly complete while downstream reports still disagree, undocumented dependencies keep appearing, and no one owns the cutover decision. I trace the gap between the old and new systems, separate blockers from follow-up work, and help your team establish a realistic release boundary.
- Validation results disagree and the cause is unclear.
- Cutover dates move because dependencies keep surfacing.
- The team needs a recovery plan while keeping production running.
Scope with a purpose
What we work toward.
Reconciliation strategy
Source-to-target checks for business logic, completeness, freshness, and the exceptions that require review.
Cutover and recovery plan
Readiness criteria, named decision owners, rollback triggers, and a runbook for the transition.
Approach & experience
A practical way forward.
I start with a representative failing workflow and follow it through the source, transformation, and consuming system. That gives us a concrete basis for diagnosis. We then agree on acceptance criteria, sequence the fixes, and rehearse the transition with the people who will own it in production.
Experience I bring
My work has included enterprise migration programs spanning 500+ workflows. That experience informs how I approach dependencies, business-logic validation, and production continuity. I combine hands-on data engineering with the coordination needed to make release decisions understandable to both engineering and business owners.

Find the right starting point.
Bring the current migration plan, the most important unresolved discrepancy, and the deadline or operational constraint driving urgency. We can use the fit call to identify the smallest useful diagnostic scope.
