I am a seasoned Senior Staff Software Engineer with over 14 years of experience specializing in high-performance distributed systems, massive-scale data engineering, and lakehouse architectures. I possess deep, production-proven expertise in building robust ETL pipelines and data processing layers using Spark, Apache Hudi, Rust, and OpenTelemetry, with a strong focus on optimizing system performance and resource management.
Currently, I lead core architectural initiatives at Concentric AI, where I drive complex data classification and security projects—including engineering low-latency systems designed to categorize and protect massive file volumes within strict compliance windows. My career spans diverse business environments, from fast-paced, high-growth startups to major global tech enterprises, including impactful tenures at companies like Atato, Agoda, MakeMyTrip, Oracle, and Wipro.
A hands-on technical leader, I excel at bridging the gap between high-level product strategy and deep engineering execution. My recent achievements include architecting and leading a unified distributed tracing project across complex upstream systems to establish comprehensive system-wide observability. Known for an adaptable, global perspective forged through international experience, I combine sharp analytical depth with a passion for writing clean, efficient code and scaling resilient data infrastructure.
