## About

I'm hands on engineering leader with 17\+ years of experience building distributed systems and data platforms at scale \- primarily in global banking, retail and cloud\-native environments\. At Deutsche Bank \(AVP\), I own the design and delivery of critical data infrastructure for Treasury technology\. Recent highlights: · Led end\-to\-end migration of legacy data platforms, delivering €200K\+ in annual infrastructure cost savings · Architected a data transfer solution reducing Hadoop cluster overhead by 30%, improving SLA adherence across downstream systems · Built a reusable entitlement framework adopted across 5 Treasury applications, cutting maintenance overhead by 10% · Applied AI prompt engineering to automate schema transformation discovery, cutting manual analysis effort by 50% Before that, at Datametica, I led a team migrating 2 TB of enterprise on\-premise data to GCP BigQuery, rewrote 50\+ Spark–Scala pipelines to BigQuery\-native SQL, and owned Terraform\-based IaC for cloud environment standardization\. At Sears Holdings \(Pune & Chicago\), I served as onsite technical lead coordinating a 8\-person distributed team across two geographies — bridging business stakeholders and engineering delivery across multi\-quarter programs\. Core strengths: · Large\-scale distributed systems and data platform architecture · Java, Spring Boot, GCP \(BigQuery, Dataproc, Cloud Storage\), Hadoop, Spark, Hive · Cloud migration strategy \(on\-prem → GCP BigQuery, TB\-scale\) · Engineering leadership — architecture reviews, team mentorship, AI\-assisted tooling adoption · Regulatory & compliance\-aligned delivery \(Treasury, data governance\) I hold a Google Professional Cloud Architect certification\.
