## Headline

Data Engineer \| I make enterprise data platforms run without babysitting: 800\+ pipelines, self\-healing retries, observability that cut manual monitoring 75% \| MCP and AI tooling for ETL \| Daimler Truck

## About

800\+ ETL pipelines and 30\+ data products across truck plants in Detroit and Germany\. I own them end to end: architecture, deployment, monitoring, and the production calls at 2am\. Most of my work aims at one thing\. Making a large data estate run without someone babysitting it\. I built a self\-healing retry framework that now recovers 3\-5 failed runs a day on its own, and a company\-wide observability layer that cut daily manual monitoring by around 75%\. I led the data engineering workstream for our SAP S/4HANA migration and moved the ETL across with zero failures and zero business disruption\. Lately I've been building the layer above that: Vortex, an internal platform tying five MCP servers to enterprise APIs, databases and 30\+ repos, plus an AI system that turns plain\-language requirements into production\-ready Python pipelines and cut development effort about 60%\. I also teach it\. I designed our enterprise AI adoption workshops, one day in 2025 and three days in 2026, for 80\+ managers, architects and technical leads\. Outside work I build things that have no business existing, like my own programming language\. Writing an interpreter teaches you more about correctness than reading about one ever will\. Specialties: data engineering, ETL architecture, Talend, Databricks, Python, SQL, Spark, medallion architecture, MCP, LLM tooling, data governance and lineage, observability, SAP S/4HANA\. Gearing up for the Fifth generation Industry\.

Senior Data Engineer at Daimler Truck Innovation Center India \(DTICI\), Jul 2023 \- Present · 3 y 2 mo, Karnataka, India, Built Vortex, an internal platform tying together five MCP servers, enterprise APIs, databases, and 30\+ repos — data lineage, governance, documentation, and dev productivity tools, plus an AI analytics layer \(LibreChat, MCP, OpenAI APIs, Ollama\)\. Built an MVP\-stage cybersecurity agent on GitHub, scanning new code across 10\+ repos for vulnerabilities and auto\-alerting owners, with a chat interface for deeper investigation\. Own architecture, development, deployment, monitoring, and production support end\-to\-end for 800\+ ETL pipelines and 30\+ data products across US \(Detroit\) and Germany plants; drove the ETL, config, and alerting standards teams build against\. Built a company\-wide observability capability \(dashboards, health checks, automated alerting\), cutting daily manual monitoring effort \~75%\. Built a configurable self\-healing retry framework, now used across the pipeline estate, recovering 3\-5 failed runs a day automatically\. Led resolution of critical production incidents — Talend Remote Engine failures, database outages, session locking, data failures — via root\-cause fixes that cut recurrence\. Led the data engineering workstream for the SAP S/4HANA migration, executing the ETL transition with zero failures and zero business disruption\. Designed the Cost Deployment pipelines on a medallion \(bronze/silver/gold\) architecture with MCP integration, enabling stakeholders to run AI\-assisted analytics directly\. Ran two AI PoCs: shopfloor data visualization with MCP/ML for dashboards and lineage tooling, and an AI\-assisted ETL PoC turning plain\-language requirements into two working Python pipelines\. Designed and ran enterprise AI adoption workshops \(1 day in 2025, expanded to 3 days in 2026\) for 80\+ managers, architects, and technical leads\. Mentored two engineers and one intern to independent\-contributor status; go\-to technical advisor for SQL, Talend, debugging, and architecture\.
