Sam Piggott
I am a Senior Data Consultant with over five years of experience delivering data engineering solutions and more than a decade of industry experience. Working primarily with the Microsoft Azure data stack, including Data Factory, Synapse, Databricks, Fabric, and Power BI, I specialise in end-to-end data platform delivery.
Beyond my professional work, you’ll often find me tinkering with my home lab. To counterbalance the technical side, I cherish the freedom of cycling and the journeys it brings, particularly travelling across countries on two wheels and camping in the wilderness. Music is another lifelong passion, with experimenting through electronic hardware, records, and DJing providing a creative outlet.
