Software Engineer
Vertisage•  April 2023 - March 2024•  Bangalore, Remote
I had the exciting opportunity to join this startup based in Bangalore where I could utilize my expertise in designing robust and scalable data pipelines using advanced technologies such as Spark, Hadoop, and DevOps tools. As a data engineer, I worked with multiple clients, specializing in provisioning and managing Spark clusters for distributed data processing, optimizing Spark jobs for improved performance and scalability, developing data ingestion workflows for collecting and cleansing data, applying transformations, and ensuring thorough data quality assurance. I also had the chance to work extensively with NoSQL databases, streaming pipelines, and Docker containerization. Additionally, I explored Machine Learning and used RAG with LlamaIndex. Well, sometimes it's not about the time, but what you do with that time. This ended up being a professionally positive experience for me.I had the exciting opportunity to join this startup based in Bangalore where I could utilize my expertise in designing robust and scalable data pipelines using advanced technologies such as Spark, Hadoop, and DevOps tools.

Software Engineer
Tata Consultancy Services•  July 2019 - April 2023•  Kolkata
Working under the esteemed Tata brand for my first job was an incredible honor, especially as a long-time admirer of Mr. Ratan Tata. At my first project as a Data Engineer, I was responsible for collecting data from various sources, ensuring data quality by cleaning and integrating information from diverse databases and file formats. I also utilized data visualization tools like Power BI to analyze trends, define key performance indicators (KPIs) for product performance and cost efficiency, and create insightful dashboards. While I found this role deeply rewarding, my eagerness to take on new challenges and continually develop as a professional drove me to seek out fresh opportunities. A new project presented itself, offering an exciting chance to build something from the ground up – from gathering requirements to conceptualization and implementation. This allowed me to expand my skill set and knowledge substantially. It honed my ability to tackle ambiguity, think critically, and collaborate effectively across teams. The experience of starting with a blank slate and bringing a complex project to life was invaluable.

While in college I took on a leadership position where I led a team of junior volunteers in organizing a tournament. As part of our college fest, we held an overnight tournament and drew teams nationwide. Additionally, we stayed committed to year-long initiatives that involved educational outreach in orphanages and active participation in social causes such as women's empowerment and advocacy-driven protests within our community.
