## About

I improved Power BI processing time by 91\.6%\. I automated away 60% of manual data configuration\. I migrated 10,000\+ lines of legacy PL/SQL to the cloud\. That's what 3\.5 years of enterprise data engineering at MAQ Software looks like in practice\. I specialise in the Microsoft Azure \+ Fabric ecosystem — building the data infrastructure that makes analytics teams faster, business reporting more reliable, and AI\-powered automation possible\. I'm one of a small number of engineers who hold both Microsoft Fabric certifications \(DP\-750 \+ DP\-700\) with real production experience behind them\. 📌 𝗥𝗘𝗖𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗞: → Led Databricks\-to\-Microsoft Fabric migration — Lakehouse, Direct Lake, OneLake architecture in enterprise production environments → Built AI automation pipelines using LangChain \+ Azure OpenAI, reducing manual QA workload by 20% → Reduced downstream data failures through ADF pipeline validation and Medallion architecture \(Bronze/Silver/Gold\) → Processed data from 14\+ enterprise source systems into unified cloud lakehouse platforms → Delivered 30–40% query performance gains via DAX model and Tabular Editor optimisation → 3× Spot Award winner — recognised for exceptional delivery and code quality across projects 🛠️ 𝗧𝗘𝗖𝗛 𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗖𝗞: Microsoft Fabric · Databricks · Azure Data Factory \(ADF\) · Apache Airflow · Python · PySpark · SQL · T\-SQL · dbt · Amazon Redshift · Azure Synapse · ADLS Gen2 · Delta Lake · ETL/ELT · Data Migration · Data Governance · Power BI · DAX · Azure OpenAI · LangChain · Retrieval\-Augmented Generation \(RAG\) · Generative AI · AI Automation · Azure · AWS · Azure DevOps 🎓 𝗘𝗗𝗨𝗖𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡: MCA · NIT Patna \(National Institute of Technology\) · 700\+ DSA problems solved
