About

I am a software leader who enjoys building scalable products at the intersection of data, engineering, and business impact. With experience in software development management and data engineering, I have worked on streaming and batch data systems, scalable architectures, and supply chain automation initiatives. My technical foundation includes Spark, Kafka, MongoDB, Cassandra, and Scala, Python, Airflow, Hive, HBase etc. I’m particularly interested in building data-consumable products that help teams make better decisions faster. I bring a problem-solving mindset, a strong focus on execution, and a collaborative approach to building systems that last. My goal is to contribute to teams where technology directly improves efficiency, reliability, and user experience.
