About

👋 Hi, I’m Aastha Thakur. 💻 I’m a Data Engineer / Data Analyst with experience working across data engineering, analytics, and business intelligence, with a strong interest in turning data into insights that can actually support business decisions. 🎓 I graduated with a B.E. in Electrical Engineering from Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology, and my journey into data started with analytics, dashboards, reporting, and automation before moving deeper into data engineering. ☁️ I enjoy working with SQL, Python, AWS, Snowflake, Airflow, Power BI, and ETL/ELT pipelines. I’ve worked on building data pipelines, designing data models, improving data quality, and creating dashboards and reports that help teams understand their data better. 📊 I’m particularly interested in data analytics, business intelligence, data visualization, KPI development, and finding patterns in data that can help solve real business problems. I enjoy working across both the technical and business sides of a problem — understanding what the business needs and then figuring out how data can help answer it. 🌱 I’m someone who enjoys learning by doing. I like taking on unfamiliar problems, exploring new tools, and building projects that help me strengthen my understanding rather than just learning concepts theoretically. 📚 Outside of work, I enjoy reading, trekking, travelling, and exploring new places. I also like spending time on creative projects and discovering new experiences whenever I get the chance. 🚀 Currently, I’m exploring opportunities in Data Engineering, Data Analytics, Business Intelligence, and Cloud Data, where I can work on meaningful problems, keep learning, and grow into a strong data professional.
