About Data Gibberish

Most data engineers are great at solving hard problems, but no one teaches you how to turn that into influence, better opportunities, or real business impact.

That’s what Data Gibberish is here to fix.

This publication is for mid-to-senior data engineers who want to:

  • Build reliable, scalable systems with modern tools

  • Work effectively with business stakeholders

  • Make smarter career moves and earn more doing it

You might have pipelines, cloud infra, and maybe even a team under your belt. But it’s still hard to get invited to strategic conversations or get credit for the business wins your work enables. I built Data Gibberish to help you change that.

Who I Am

I'm Yordan, Head of Data Engineering with 15+ years of experience, from tiny startups to global teams. I started in software, moved into data, and spent years figuring out what separates "just solid" engineers from trusted, high-impact ones.

I write Data Gibberish to share the frameworks, tools, and lessons I wish I had earlier. And to help you lead with data, not just react to it.

An honest, practical, and easy-to-read newsletter that covers common data topics and challenges, offering solutions and tips.

“A great way to learn and polish your DataOps skills.”
