NIRAJ ZADE
Data Engineer | Software Engineer

I help companies build centralized data lakehouses by gathering data from disparate sources (APIs, databases etc), to enable data science & data driven business decisions - without breaking the bank.

Sometimes you need someone with range, to tackle open ended problems with unknown path to solution. If you're in that sometime, I am that someone.

Have spent the past decade working through software, with ~4 years of it within tech companies. Have built for enterprises, startups, as well as myself (indie development).

Tech I most frequently work with: Spark, FastAPI, Python, SQL, AWS, Airflow, Docker

Strengths include:

• Overall range, required to sew together business and tech
• Rapid explotatory prototyping and building synthetic load simulations (testbenches), to check and prove architectural/systemic feasibility
• Building technical consensus amongst stakeholders - technical and business - in the face of ambiguity
• Coming up with roadmap/goals for targetted execution. A term you might know is "manager of one"
