About Kranthi Karkonda

I’m a Data Analyst with 4+ years of experience turning complex data into actionable insights that drive smarter decisions across finance and IT domains. My passion lies in building scalable data solutions, optimizing workflows, and uncovering trends that fuel both operational efficiency and long-term business growth.At Uber, I engineered PySpark + Snowflake pipelines that processed 3.2M+ ride transactions daily, delivering accurate billing and compliance-ready reporting across U.S. operations. By streamlining workflows with Airflow and Python, I automated daily jobs, saving my team 45+ analyst hours per week and enabling faster insights for finance and operations. I also led Power BI initiatives that visualized ride demand across 400+ cities, directly shaping surge-pricing strategies and improving driver allocation.Previously at Dell Technologies, I designed predictive models in Python that reduced hardware downtime by hours annually and developed 25+ interactive Power BI dashboards that cut reporting cycles by 1.5 business days per quarter. My ETL workflows ingested 1.5TB+ datasets into Snowflake and Azure Synapse, transforming siloed data into reliable, enterprise-wide analytics.Beyond the technical side, I enjoy mentoring and collaborating. I’ve trained junior analysts on SQL optimization and dashboard design, helping them ramp up 3 months faster and boosting overall team throughput by 25 deliverables per sprint. I believe data’s real value comes not just from the pipelines or models, but from empowering people to make better decisions with it. Core strengths: SQL, Python, PySpark, dbt, Hadoop, Power BI, Tableau, advanced analytics (Regression, Forecasting, Classification, Time Series), and data warehousing (Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Synapse). Experienced with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), workflow automation (Airflow, Glue, ADF), and data governance (GDPR, SOC-2).
