Rob Williams
Database Administrator
- DBA
- SQL Developer
- Data Engineer
I specialise in designing, implementing, and managing data storage and processing solutions that support a wide range of research and analytics needs.
I've contributed to projects from both CPRD Research Group and Clinical Informatics & Health-Outcomes (CIHORG), including AstraZeneca vaccine effectiveness studies within NHS England’s Trusted Research Environment and ORCHID platform. HEALD, NESIE, PRU, and the Mainroute projects in the ORCHID-S/E platforms are other projects I've built data for, and I oversee ETL processes for the Gold and Aurum datasets for the CPRD Research Group.
Key technologies in my toolkit include SQL, Python, PowerShell, and various Linux-based tools, that I use to build efficient data pipelines, maintain robust system performance, and ensure seamless integration of infrastructures.
While I embrace the opportunity to explore and adopt modern technologies, I also believe in preserving and refining long-standing Linux-based methods/tools that I feel provide skills to work smarter rather than harder.
