About Nihaar Shah

Let me begin by saying this: I love writing code. I was first introduced to the world of coding during my undergraduate studies. I was awestruck by the power of coding and was fascinated with what I could achieve. I believe that the future of technology is data driven and it will transform the way we think of technology. My journey began with the most fundamental programming language, C. After grasping the basics, I moved on to JAVA and explored the world of Object Oriented Programming. I was then introduced to the language for relational databases, SQL. I instantly developed a liking to it. I wanted to make the most of it and realized that it would not be possible without the high-level Python language. Over the course of time, I developed my skill and got an opportunity to apply my knowledge at my first professional job, EduHubSpot. I worked as a Database Developer. In order to further my career and seek better opportunities, I decided to pursue my master\'s in Information Systems. During my master\'s, I worked as a Data Engineer Intern at Virgin Pulse. My experience with EduHubSpot as a Database Developer and with Virgin Pulse as a Data Engineer has provided me with a well-rounded background and has enabled me to develop my skill in the field of data engineering.I believe that every company has big data in its future and eventually every company will be in the data business. I constantly update my domain knowledge and develop latest skill to assist the overall growth of the industry and the society. Skills/interests: SQL, Kafka, PL/SQL, Python, AWS, ETL, Tableau, AWS, HTML, CSS, JavaScript
