   I work in the Power Query Mashup Connectors team. Power Query is a data transformation and preparation tool available in Power BI. It allows users to perform ETL operations on data from a variety of data sources into Power BI. Few of my contributions: 1) Developed a Power Query SDK to fetch web proxy settings to be set in the driver properties for custom connector (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-query/handling-proxy-support) 2) Enabled certified connectors feature in PQO dataflows, by rewiring the individual consumption of custom connectors with connector set. As a result, the feature enables effortless integration of any extension connector into the assembly.(https://powerquery.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/new-certified-connectors-available-in-power-bi-dataflows-and-datamarts/) 3) Added Native query support for custom connectors in Power BI Desktop (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-query/native-query-sdk) 4) Added query folding capabilities for several M functions for the built-in and extension connectors
