Full Stack Data Engineer building end-to-end data products Kafka ingestion to Databricks AI analytics to production dashboards.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Full Stack Data Engineer with 3+ years owning the complete data lifecycle—ingestion, transformation, AI-driven analytics, and delivery—at production scale. At BookMyShow, I independently shipped a Kafka-to-dashboard streaming analytics product, built a multi-gateway payment reconciliation system, and migrated production Spark workloads from Redshift to a Databricks Lakehouse (200+ jobs) using a reusable framework adopted across teams.
I thrive across the stack: Apache Kafka and REST/SFTP ingestion, PySpark and Delta Lake transformation, Databricks AI Functions and prediction modelling, and delivery via Streamlit/Power BI/Databricks Apps. I’ve also executed a 1B+ event CleverTap CDP migration with GCP Dataflow/Dataproc with zero data loss, and I bring Databricks Certified Professional Data Engineer (top 1% globally) plus Google Cloud Professional Data Engineer and ML Engineer credentials.
