Juan Carlo Mejía Chang at work

With over 25 years of experience across multiple industries, I have spent recent years focused on data analysis, data engineering and business intelligence. I specialise in designing and managing data solutions that support strategic decision-making — spanning data modelling, ETL processes, interactive reporting and application development.

I have demonstrable expertise in integrating multiple data sources to generate meaningful insights, identifying areas of process improvement, streamlining workflows and implementing automation to boost data accuracy and optimise performance. With a proven track record of fostering collaboration, I communicate effectively with stakeholders to ensure the achievement of goals, KPIs and benchmarks.
