About Chinmay Kadam

I build scalable data platforms and distributed systems that process high-volume, business-critical data.Currently a Software Engineer at Wissen Technology, working in the financial services domain, I design and operate data systems that ingest, transform, and serve millions of records with strong reliability and performance guarantees.My core focus areas:• Distributed data processing using Scala and Apache Spark• Data platform architecture on Snowflake• Designing fault-tolerant, SLA-driven pipelines with robust validation and schema enforcement• Backend engineering with microservices (Spring Boot)• Performance optimization through caching, query tuning, and efficient data modelingImpact I’ve driven:• Reduced pipeline failures by 23% and improved delivery timelines by 40% by building a reliability framework• Cut report latency by ~50% and reduced redundant queries by ~65% using Redis-based caching• Built and scaled ingestion systems processing millions of records per run with high data quality guarantees• Led end-to-end onboarding of new data sources—from ambiguous requirements to production deploymentI enjoy working on problems at the intersection of scale, reliability, and system design—where small architectural decisions have large downstream impact.Outside of backend engineering, I’ve worked on applied AI systems, including a multimodal emotion-aware chatbot (83% accuracy) and research in explainable AI and federated learning, with publications at international conferences.Tech: Scala, Apache Spark, Snowflake, Java, Spring Boot, SQL, Redis, Microservices, CI/CD
