IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Software Engineer focused on designing and operating scalable backend systems, ETL pipelines, and data-intensive applications. I enjoy turning complex data workflows into reliable, production-ready services.
In my recent roles, I’ve owned end-to-end ETL and data processing workflows using Python, PostgreSQL, and Redis—improving processing efficiency and strengthening ingestion, transformation, validation, and delivery of enterprise datasets.
I also bring strong engineering discipline around observability and quality. I’ve implemented monitoring, automated alerting, and data quality validation to improve issue detection, reduce operational downtime, and protect data integrity.
Beyond development, I’ve driven performance and reliability improvements through database migrations, query optimization, containerization with Docker, and CI/CD enhancements. I aim to collaborate across platform, analytics, QA, and product teams to deliver dependable systems in Agile environments.
