What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build and modernize cloud-native data platforms where I can solve migration challenges, improve data governance and quality, mentor engineering teams, and align technical strategy with business outcomes.

I build cloud-native data solutions that make operational reporting and analytics more available, reliable, and governable. At Uplabs, I design multi-tier data platforms, scalable pipelines, and data models for cross-departmental analytics.

I’ve integrated batch, near-real-time, and API-based data using Apache Airflow, Apache Spark, Apache Kafka, Snowflake, Amazon Redshift, AWS Glue, and Terraform. I also lead legacy migrations, strengthen data quality and lineage, and implement monitoring, automated testing, and CI/CD practices.

Earlier at TechWebsters and FineLabs, I developed ETL workflows, automation tools, Hadoop and Hive solutions, and cloud integrations across AWS and Azure. I enjoy the messy middle of migrations, mentoring teams through design reviews, and turning evolving business needs into durable data systems.
