Introducing the Presenter

Andrew Jones

Author and Principal Data Engineer at Springer Nature

Andrew Jones is a Principal Engineer, esteemed author, and recognised Google Developer Expert. He thinks a lot about how to build platforms—particularly data platforms—that drive the creation of business value. His work on building performant, efficient, and well-governed data platforms that facilitate the production and consumption of quality data led him to coin and define "data contracts." In 2023, he authored the seminal book on the topic.
