About
I’m Melody, a Data & Cloud Engineer passionate about building reliable data platforms and making cloud technology more accessible. My work sits at the intersection of data engineering, cloud infrastructure, and emerging AI technologies. Beyond building systems, I enjoy sharing what I learn, mentoring others, and creating opportunities for people entering tech.
Experiences & Achievements
AWS re:Invent · Las Vegas
Being selected for the AWS All Builders Welcome Grant gave me the opportunity to attend AWS re:Invent in Las Vegas for the first time. Beyond the sessions and technology, it was an incredible exposure to the wider cloud community and an opportunity to connect with builders from different backgrounds.
MasterSchool · Cloud Engineering · Germany
I completed my Software Engineering — Cloud Weiterbildung with MasterSchool, sponsored through Germany's Weiterbildung support program. The programme strengthened my practical skills across cloud engineering, software development, and modern infrastructure.
Mentorship · Women in Tech
Selected as a WIBD mentor, I had the opportunity to mentor two women in tech. One was exploring freelancing while the other was transitioning into cloud engineering. Helping them navigate their goals reminded me how valuable guidance and community can be when building a career in technology.
AWS User Group · Bochum
I hosted my first AWS meetup in Bochum in collaboration with the AWS User Group Dortmund, bringing cloud professionals and enthusiasts together to learn, share experiences, and connect. The meetup featured talks and discussions around AWS and cloud technologies, followed by networking with the local tech community.
