About

Engineering leader who turns complex data challenges into measurable business advantage. 18+ years of experience building mission-critical data infrastructure, engineering low-latency, large-scale distributed systems, real-time data pipelines, and modernizing cloud-native data platforms across BFSI, Trading, Real Estate Investment, and Utilities. At ING Bank, Susquehanna International Group (SIG), and Roc360, I have led initiatives where architecture decisions translated into real business impact - reducing costs, boosting performance, and helping the organization operate faster, not just the systems.

Lately, I've been diving into applied AI/ML, building RAG pipelines, context engineering, fine-tuning, and agent-based workflows with LLMs.
