About Me

Hello, I'm Salih. I specialize in SQL, ETL, Business Intelligence, data warehousing, and data modeling. I've worked extensively with Power BI, Qlik Sense, QlikView, SSRS, and SSIS — designing, developing, and implementing end-to-end BI solutions across multiple industries.

With over 10 years of hands-on experience, I focus on transforming unclear business goals into measurable KPIs, reducing errors through automation and anomaly detection, and helping teams make faster, data-driven decisions.

Throughout my career, I've built a reputation for bringing clarity and structure to complex analytical requirements.

My working style aligns strongly with Leadership Principles — particularly Dive Deep, Ownership, and Deliver Results.

I'm currently focused on transitioning my career from Senior BI/DWH development into advanced Cloud Data Engineering. As licensing, infrastructure, hosting, and maintenance costs continue to rise across the industry, I shifted my expertise toward scalable, serverless, cost-efficient, and secure data architectures that reduce operational overhead while increasing performance.

My learning approach is rooted in understanding patterns, logic, and design principles rather than memorizing syntax. By internalizing core concepts, I can quickly adapt the same reasoning I apply in SQL to other tools, languages, and technologies, enabling me to deliver consistent, scalable, and high-quality data solutions.

📌 About Innobi

Innobi was founded by Salih Sezen in 2020 as a small data and analytics company.

It was created to support the development of individual and short-term projects, enable research, experimentation, and continuous technical improvement, and bring independent work together under a formal business structure.

Innobi continues to operate today, primarily for contract-based engagements and specialized data engineering or BI development work.
