About

As a Data Engineer at Thoughtworks, I apply my expertise in PySpark, Databricks, and SQL to design, develop, and deploy scalable data pipelines that enhance the efficiency and quality of data solutions. I graduated from BNM Institute of Technology with a B.E. in Computer Science Engineering, where I honed my skills in data structures, algorithms, and cloud computing. I also participated in and won several hackathons, such as the Smart India Hackathon 2020 and the IEEE Hackathon, showcasing my creativity and problem-solving abilities. One of my proudest achievements at TCS was leading a strategic migration project from an on-premise data warehouse to Azure Synapse Analytics, resulting in a remarkable 35% improvement in report generation speed and a 20% reduction in operational costs. I also collaborated with cross-functional teams to optimize the performance and reliability of the data pipelines, using Azure Data Lake and Azure Databricks as the main platforms. I am passionate about learning new tools and technologies in the data engineering field, and I continuously seek opportunities to expand my knowledge and skills. I am fluent in English, Hindi, and French, and I enjoy working with diverse and global teams. My goal is to leverage my data engineering skills to deliver innovative and impactful solutions that drive business value and customer satisfaction.
