About

Hiii, I'm a Data Engineer based in Bangalore, currently helping global enterprise teams modernize their analytics infrastructure using scalable, cloud-native solutions. I work at the intersection of data engineering, architecture, and business intelligence turning complex ERP and CRM data into actionable insights. 🔍 What I Do: I specialize in building full-stack data pipelines on the Azure ecosystem to enable enterprise reporting, dashboarding, and analytics. My work revolves around: • Orchestrating metadata-driven ETL using Azure Data Factory • Processing large volumes of structured data with Azure Databricks (PySpark) • Architecting curated data layers from RAW → BASE → ENRICHED → WAREHOUSE • Modeling and transforming data for reporting via Synapse Serverless • Delivering real-time, secure, and insightful dashboard support using Power BI or Tableau connectors ⚙️ Tech Stack Azure | ADF | Databricks (PySpark) | Synapse | Power BI | Azure SQL | Delta Lake | Git | DevOps | CI/CD | REST APIs 📡 Key Focus Areas • Integrating data from disparate ERP and CRM systems into a centralized reporting platform • Designing performant pipelines for multi-source, high-granularity sales and operations data • Enabling row-level security, PII anonymization, and data governance at scale • Supporting agile BI teams through automated deployments and versioned feature releases 🌱 What’s Next: I'm actively transitioning toward AI and machine learning engineering by deepening my expertise in model development, MLOps, and intelligent analytics systems. I’m exploring the fusion of data pipelines with real-time ML applications, and pursuing advanced learning in AI infrastructure, model optimization, and deployment at scale. Whether it's building smarter pipelines, engineering AI-driven solutions, or working on impactful research: I’m here for it :) Let’s connect, collaborate, or create something meaningful together. 🔗 Get to know more about me: mohangowdat.com 📬 Open to conversations, collaborations, and all things technical.
