From PDF to decision dashboard

Data Engineer / Data Analyst · Dec. 2023

5,000+players analysed every month, with zero manual entry

The context

The FFT Padel rankings: 200+ page PDFs, republished every month, unusable for analysis.

My intervention

A Python pipeline packaged as an executable: FFT download → PDF parsing → cleaning and standardisation → Parquet, then a Power BI dashboard in 3 views (demographics, top players, regions and clubs), shaped in concert with the client.

The result

End-to-end automated reporting and a clear read on French Padel. Engagement rated 5/5 by the client.
