Christopher Aytona
Data & Automation Engineer
Software engineer turned data specialist — building pipelines, dashboards, and AI systems that run themselves across North America.
About Me
I turn raw operational data into automated intelligence. At Amazon, I built end-to-end data pipelines, programs, and tools that collectively replaced multiple FTEs worth of manual work — adopted by teams across multiple fulfillment networks spanning North America.
With a software engineering background in game development and full-stack systems, I pivoted into data and automation — bringing an engineer's mindset to analytics. Every system I build is designed to run itself, scale across sites, and eliminate the need for manual intervention.
