What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead end-to-end SDLC and build/optimize streaming Big Data and BI solutions—using Scala, Flink, Kafka, and data warehouse/ETL tools—to deliver reliable, high-performance analytics for business decisions.

I bring 18+ years of experience across all phases of the SDLC—analysis, requirement engineering, architecture design, database design, development, enhancements, and maintenance—delivering standalone, multi-tier, object-oriented enterprise applications.

I specialize in Big Data and data processing, with hands-on expertise in Apache Spark and Apache Flink (batch, streaming, Spark SQL), Hadoop (MapReduce, Hive, Pig), HDFS, and ingestion/streaming systems like Kafka, Sqoop, and Kafka-based job communication.

I’ve built end-to-end data products and platforms, from personalization and decisioning frameworks (Scala, Flink, Kafka, Redis, Cassandra, MongoDB) to offline/real-time ingest workflows, designing data quality frameworks for schema validation and data profiling and tuning performance for production stability.

On the analytics side, I develop data warehouse models and BI reporting using Star Schema, SSIS/Informatica, SSAS (Tabular Model), DAX, Power BI, and Tableau—plus Azure Data Factory, Databricks, Datalake, and Azure Synapse Analytics—supporting executive reporting and KPI-driven insights.
