@ganeshhemanth
Senior Data Engineer specializing in cloud-native big data migrations and low-latency data pipelines.
What I'm looking for
I am a Senior Data Engineer with 5+ years of experience building and migrating large-scale data platforms for financial and consumer companies. I specialize in moving multi-terabyte on-premise systems to cloud-native architectures (AWS), designing high-throughput Apache Spark and Kafka pipelines, and cutting processing latency from days to hours to accelerate business intelligence.
My work spans full-stack development and DevOps practices—deploying containerized services on ECS/Kubernetes, implementing observability with Prometheus and Grafana, and optimizing ML pipelines. I have delivered measurable performance gains, improved concurrency for Snowflake environments, and contributed open-source and product-facing projects that demonstrate practical, production-ready engineering.
