I'm Niraj Zade

Sr. Data Engineer | Architect | Consultant

I'm a data hoarder turned Sr. Data Engineer. If you have data coming in at scale, and are having issues with it, contact me. You get your problems solved, and I get a channel for my engineering itch. A win-win for everyone involved.

I help companies gain competitive advantage through unified data lakehouses, by building systems to gather and unify data from disparate sources at any scale (APIs, databases, vendor tools etc) to unlock AI, Data Science & Data Driven Business Decisions.

While not breaking the bank.

I'm VERY particular about performance and financial engineering. That's my edge.


I'm an extremely high-agency person. Have spent over a decade solving problems through software. 4.5+ years of it within tech companies. A term that describes me, which you might know is manager of one.

Have solved problems at/through companies including:

And some stealth startups here and there...

Tech stack I generally use: pySpark, Databricks, Azure/AWS, FastAPI, Python, SQL, Linux, Docker etc
