Emanuele Meazzo

Emanuele Meazzo

I’m passionate about technology since childhood, from consumer electronics to enterprise hardware/software and everything in between.

Following this passion, I pursued an education focused on scientific and technical fields, becoming an IT Engineer at the end of my academic career.
I often spend my free time trying to learn something new and be up to date on the topics in my interest, allowing me to maintain and develop my skillset.

Thanks to study and international experiences with customers and employers (in USA, Canada, France, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, etc..) and mentors, I’ve developed a transversal knowledge that involves both the elements of an architecture and how to exploit it in order to give to the business the value that needs.

My strong suite is architecting data solutions, from relational DBs to AI applications: I like to know my tech stack from top to bottom, you can't ignore the hardware in the same way you can't ignore the business requirements.

On the job I usually find myself being the go-to guy that both senior and junior employees approach to tackle particularly tricky issues or asking for advice
I appreciate whenever this happens as I’m stimulated by new problems to solve and I enjoy sharing my knowledge to empower others

I’m a data leader who’s been wrangling the data puzzle for over 35 years - & I still haven’t lost a piece. I help organizations get ahead of the chaos by defining & optimizing processes, governance, quality, & intelligence - solving those frustrating “why doesn’t this report make sense?” moments before they happen.​​

With decades of deep practitioner know-how, I craft secure strategic roadmaps that tackle global companies’ most complex challenges in analytics, data, data science, marketing, AI, & ML - without the buzzword bingo.​​

I also advise senior leaders on how to squeeze more value from the tech they already own (yes, even that clunky system no one wants to touch), helping them make confident, data-driven decisions while saving time, money, & a few headaches on support & maintenance.​

I’ve worn many corporate hats - CDO of a data strategy firm, COO of a real estate development company, CEO/CMO of a national marketing agency, CFO of a regional construction firm, IT Manager for a national risk management company, & Customer Service Manager for an international software company.

So whether it’s data, dollars, dirt, or delivery, I’ve been there.

I'm fluent in data delivery via SQL server tables, stored procedures, views, SSIS packages, SSAS tabular models, Oracle Toad, & SAP Universes. My specialties for BI delivery are SSRS, Power BI, Tableau, SAP Business Objects & Crystal Reports.
