◆ Promoted to launch a new team composed of diverse expertise; accelerated Fellows’ placement rate by 50%.◆ Established as an in-house expert on SQL Data Modeling for transactional and data-warehousing analytical systems; Advised Fellows working on data-warehousing projects and conducted data-modeling workshops◆ Facilitated tailored engineering workshops, working groups, and personal sessions for around 200 Fellows◆ Resolved skill-gaps in Fellows by formulating a learning framework to learn any new engineering tools/techniques required by Fellows in their career◆ Engineered a novel assessment platform by tightly integrating various systems via APIs

◆ Mentored and managed around 75 Data Engineering Fellows to land relevant Data Engineering roles at Apple, Grammarly, Disney+, and other relevant companies◆ Provided technical feedback in all phases of Data Engineering projects for all 75 Fellows, leveraging my software engineering experience◆ Instilled a rigorous engineering mindset in Fellows by sharing best practices in popular tools like Spark, Kafka, Cassandra, PostgreSQL, etc.◆ Supervised multiple projects using Apache Spark to process multiple terabytes of data◆ Used Apache Spark to identify similar songs from a bank of 10k digital MIDI files. Optimized 12 million computations to reduce processing time by 30%

◆ Designed and Implemented a new music recommendation engine that analyses the content of a song. Songs were recommended based on the number of shared instruments between songs.◆ Enabled ML engineers to build a model that recommends music purely based on musical aspects like chords, chord-progression, rhythm-progression etc.

◆ Ensured smooth functioning of the website's server components.◆ Achieved 99.99% uptime of website in the school year 2018-19. Took initiative in using tools like ELK, AWS Athena to improve site availability over the course of 4 years.◆ Accomplished daily averages of ½ million page views and 30k users by fine-tuning the tech stack.◆ Simplified and improved user adoption by implementing deep OAuth2 API integrations with various vendors(Google, Microsoft, Clever) that had over 7000 daily API interactions with Edcite.◆ Provisioned more than 150k accounts via API syncs maintaining high standards of data integrity. Achieved this by designing a novel method of outsourcing checks to MySQL, resulting in elegant code.◆ Deployed fine-grained access to around 4000 customers by engineering a robust and extensible User-Management engine. Built APIs that was used by other developers.◆ Built a robust data pipeline between NodeJS, MySQL, Cassandra, and Solr.◆ Researched potential tools that can be used to improve site reliability.◆ Executed smooth and efficient yearly infrastructure updates.

◆ Involved with large Mainframe applications handling revenues of ~$100m at every stage of designing, coding, reviewing, unit-testing, regression-testing and production implementation.◆ Reduced IT costs by 15% by writing a tool that identifies and deletes archived or unused datasets.◆ Onboarded new colleagues by mentoring them and crafting supporting documentation when needed.
