   Nov 2022 — Present · New Delhi, IN

   As a Technical Delivery Lead and Data Engineering Manager, I have successfully led multiple large-scale data platform initiatives across media, manufacturing, and food & beverage domains, driving end-to-end solution design, real-time integration, and automation on cloud-native architectures.For a leading New Zealand-based media client, I led a team of five data engineers in architecting a real-time data integration and automation platform using Azure Databricks, PySpark, Delta Lake, and ADLS Gen2. I implemented the Medallion Architecture (Bronze–Silver–Gold) for scalable, governed data management and developed optimized pipelines for ingestion, transformation, and validation. I introduced Deequ-based data quality frameworks and SCD Type 1/2 logic to ensure data reliability and historical accuracy. Additionally, I automated CI/CD pipelines with Azure DevOps, covering code validation, Lakeflow job creation, deployment, and production promotion. My onsite tenure in New Zealand strengthened client relationships, delivery governance, and cross-functional collaboration across global time zones.In the food and beverage sector, I led the development of an AI-powered chatbot engine, improving response efficiency by 80% and enabling real-time insights for leadership decision-making.In the manufacturing domain, I managed a 10-member data engineering team to design and deliver a Manufacturing Control Tower solution on Azure Cloud. The platform integrated multiple real-time data sources to provide end-to-end visibility into operations, combining GenAI and distributed computing to enhance analytics and business responsiveness.Across all engagements, I ensured delivery excellence through strong technical leadership, DevOps automation, Agile methodologies, and stakeholder communication, consistently achieving high client satisfaction and operational impact.
