I’m a Senior Data Engineer building scalable batch and streaming lakehouse pipelines for trusted analytics.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Data Engineer who has engineered scalable batch and streaming pipelines on Uber’s Apache Hudi Data Lake using Spark, Kafka, and Airflow—supporting rider demand, driver supply, pricing, and operational analytics. I designed reusable ETL workflows that ingest trip, dispatch, payment, incentive, and driver activity data into curated Hudi datasets consumed across Product Analytics, Finance, Marketplace Engineering, and Machine Learning teams.
Across my roles, I’ve implemented incremental data processing with Change Data Capture (CDC), schema evolution, partition management, and automated backfill strategies—reducing pipeline execution time by 40% and compute costs by 25%. I also built an automated data quality framework for freshness, completeness, reconciliation, anomaly detection, and SLA monitoring, and earlier supported analytics and adoption reporting using Spark and SQL at the Unified Analytics Platform (UAP) and during Azure Databricks launches.
