I am Veda, I have around 8 years of professional work experience. My skill set is a well balanced mix of Software and Data Engineering.

I currently work at Apple as a Data Engineer, where I am responsible for designing & developing large scale data pipelines that run on cloud and on-premise, dealing with Peta byte scale data.

At Apple, I have contributed to and led multiple initiatives which backed data, billing, and reporting aspects of Apple's online advertising business. I am well versed in all phases of the data pipeline lifecycle like ingestion, processing, reporting, monitoring, etc. I am adept at performance tuning of the data jobs by eliminating bottlenecks and can develop resilient, optimal production grade code. I collaborate with multiple other teams within Engineering, product, BI systems, QE, and other partner teams across the org to deliver high impact outcomes within stringent timelines. I was also promoted internally.

My initial experiences were at a startup, which is where I developed my interest towards the data side of things.

Thanks for your time. I believe my skill and experiences are very much relevant to the position and I would like a chance to further discuss the position and the skills I would bring to the role.
