What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a Data Engineering role where I can build and operate production ETL pipelines, orchestration, and reliable analytics data stores—turning messy inputs into fast, trustworthy outputs with real-world impact.

I’m a Data Engineer with production experience building ETL pipelines, orchestrating workflows with Apache Airflow, and designing scalable data processing architecture. I automate data ingestion from diverse sources, optimize data delivery for analytics, and manage database operations for high-availability systems—so insights and dashboards stay fast and reliable.

In my current role, I build production ETL pipelines in Python to validate and bulk-load 4,000+ historical sugar price records into PostgreSQL, with error handling that keeps ingestion uninterrupted. I orchestrate ML prediction workflows with Celery and Redis to reduce dashboard response times from 2+ minutes to near-instantaneous, and I’ve deployed automated web scraping pipelines that eliminate manual data entry bottlenecks. I also configure PostgreSQL/MySQL routing, manage staging-to-production migrations with zero-downtime deployments, and develop backend logic for checkout, KYC verification, and automated proforma invoice generation linked to unique order references.
