Experienced Backend Engineer specializing in backend development and data engineering.
What I'm looking for
As a Senior Backend Engineer with over 5 years of experience, I specialize in backend development and data engineering. My expertise lies in Python, MySQL, SQL Server, REST APIs, C#, and Snowflake. I am recognized for my exceptional performance in leading successful projects and delivering high-quality, scalable solutions. My journey has been marked by a commitment to mentoring teams and collaborating across functions, ensuring that we achieve our goals together.
At Ascendion Engineering, I developed a Python script that integrated with a payment gateway, enhancing the user experience in our gym application. My previous role at KIPI.BI involved designing and delivering automated data extraction solutions that significantly reduced manual efforts. I take pride in my ability to optimize processes and improve performance, as evidenced by my successful transformation of SQL stored procedures into Snowflake’s JavaScript stored procedures, which improved performance by 35%.
My educational background includes a Bachelor of Engineering from Pimpri Chinchwad College of Engineering, where I graduated with an impressive CGPA of 8.68. I have also earned certifications such as the Snowflake SnowPro Core Certification. My achievements include ranking among the top 7 in a national coding competition and receiving multiple awards for my contributions to project deliveries. I am passionate about empowering others, as demonstrated by my involvement with the Lila Poonawalla Foundation, where I trained engineering girls in coding basics.
