@ajithkumarthiraviyam

Azure Data Engineer with 5+ years building scalable ADF/Databricks pipelines for analytics-ready datasets.

What I'm looking for

I’m looking to continue building reliable Azure data platforms—designing incremental Medallion pipelines in ADF/Databricks, optimizing Spark performance, and enforcing strong data validation for analytics and BI consumption.

I’m an Azure Data Engineer with 5+ years of experience building scalable Azure data engineering solutions across ADF, Databricks (PySpark), SQL, ADLS Gen2, and Delta Lake.

I design and implement incremental pipelines and Medallion architecture (Bronze → Silver → Gold) to create analytics-ready datasets, including data validation, cleansing, transformations, and applying business rules.

In my work, I focus on data reliability and accuracy through validation checks, reconciliation logic, and strong error handling. I also optimize Spark jobs by tuning partitioning, joins, shuffles, and adaptive execution to improve performance for large-scale workloads.

I maintain Delta tables for optimized storage and faster querying, implement incremental data loads using watermark/CDC logic, and manage Git-based source control for Databricks notebooks and Azure Data Factory pipelines. I thrive collaborating with product owners and senior engineers during sprint cycles to deliver clear, effective data solutions.
