With 5 years of experience in data engineering, I specialize in building scalable data solutions on Microsoft Azure, with a strong focus on transforming raw data into reliable, business-ready insights. As a fresher at Infosys I built a solid foundation in data engineering and cloud concepts. During this phase, I worked on understanding data pipelines, basic data integration, and supporting existing workflows—gaining hands-on exposure to Azure services and real-world project environments. This experience helped me develop a strong base in data handling, debugging, and collaborative development practices. At Bitwise, I transitioned into a more advanced and impactful role as an Azure Data Engineer, where I design and develop end-to-end data solutions. I have built and optimized ETL/ELT pipelines using Azure Data Factory, integrating data from multiple sources such as APIs, databases, and flat files into Azure Data Lake and Blob Storage. I extensively work with Azure Databricks and PySpark to process large-scale data, implementing Medallion architecture (Bronze, Silver, Gold layers) for structured and efficient data transformation. I have hands-on experience in performance tuning, data partitioning, and leveraging Delta Lake for optimized storage and faster query performance. Additionally, I ensure secure and reliable data pipelines using Azure Key Vault and CI/CD practices through Azure DevOps, contributing to improved deployment efficiency and data quality. I am passionate about solving complex data problems, continuously improving system performance, and building scalable cloud-native data platforms. I enjoy working in collaborative environments and contributing to solutions that drive meaningful business outcomes
