About Devashish K.

Hey, I’m Devashish — your friendly neighborhood Data Person.I operate somewhere between Data Engineering, Data Science, Machine Learning, and that corner where Spark errors go to cry. I enjoy anything involving data: building it, modeling it, fixing it, or explaining why it’s lying.I work across the full data lifecycle — ingestion → transformation → analytics → AI, and I refuse to fit into a single label like “just Data Engineer” or “just Data Scientist.” I recently added AgenticAI to my skill set, too, which feels like a software upgrade to my personality.Outside the tech world, I love exploring new places (especially mountains), cooking things that are usually edible, and watching sci-fi for “research.”If your world revolves around data, ML, GenAI, Databricks, or fun technical chaos — let’s connect. I bring curiosity, humor, and a strong belief that most problems can be fixed with the right index.

Experience

1. Head of Making Data Less Terrible (Unofficial)

   Genpact

   Oct 2024 — Present · Bengaluru, IN

   At Genpact, I worked on one of the largest data migrations in the ecosystem — moving legacy systems into Databricks and building a modern, scalable Data Lake.I optimized the Silver and Gold layers (Spark tantrums reduced significantly), migrated 1,500+ tables, and refactored 150+ Talend workflows into clean, modular pipelines. I also built 200+ DDLs, added CI/CD for smoother deployments, and put strict data quality checks in place so bad data doesn’t sneak through.As domain lead, I partnered with clients to turn evolving business needs into practical, high-impact data solutions.
