   As a Senior Python Developer, I architected and implemented large-scale cloud-native data pipelines using Azure Data Factory, DBT, and Snowflake. I designed RESTful APIs using FastAPI with asynchronous programming and Pydantic models to support high-throughput agricultural analytics and field telemetry processing. I led the development of full-stack applications integrating React.js and FastAPI, improving real-time equipment monitoring with a 35% boost in data accessibility.I automated Snowflake provisioning and model transformations via Python and Terraform, integrating CI/CD workflows with GitHub Actions for automated testing, containerization, and deployment to AKS clusters. Designed modular ETL pipelines applying SCD Type 2 patterns to load structured sensor and financial data, ensuring audit compliance and traceability.I built Kafka-integrated APIs for ingesting real-time telemetry, enabling predictive maintenance analytics. Integrated FastAPI services with Azure Function Apps and Blob Storage for event-driven enrichment. Managed DBT models within Snowflake to enforce transformation logic and data validation with minimal latency.I implemented comprehensive observability using Datadog, Azure Monitor, and custom logging with Log4j, reducing debugging time and enhancing root cause analysis. Defined API contracts, versioning strategies, and reusable middleware components for a microservices architecture.Security and compliance were ensured through OAuth2 and Azure AD-based access control, with row/column-level security embedded in APIs and database models. I documented all services using OpenAPI and mentored junior developers in architecture, unit testing with PyTest, and Agile best practices, actively contributing to sprint ceremonies and release planning.
