I work at the intersection of data, cloud, and systems. Most of my work revolves around large-scale pipelines, performance optimization, reliability, and automation, with growing focus on LLMs and AI-enabled systems.

• Scalable data pipelines (batch + incremental)
• Schema-aware backup & lineage systems
• Performance-optimized Glue / Spark jobs
• Developer tools & internal platforms
• LLM-driven utilities & automation workflows

• Large Language Models (internals + system design)
• Vector workflows & embedded data engineering
• Go for backend & infra tooling
• Advanced Spark / query optimization
• Interview preparation for product-based companies
