I am a Software Engineer and Data Engineer with 2+ years of experience building reliable backend services, optimizing SQL performance, and automating data workflows. I’ve led a zero-downtime SQL Server migration across 12 production instances and 85 databases, and I cut p95 query latency by ~40% through plan guides, indexing improvements, and careful tuning. I also built dashboards to surface failures and regressions, helping stakeholders review weekly trends. I’m obsessed with measurable outcomes, reliability, and clean runbooks. I enjoy turning complex problems into repeatable processes, reducing toil with automation, and collaborating with teams to drive continuous improvement.

Automated recurring SQL Server administration tasks (backups, index maintenance, job health) with PowerShell, reducing weekly manual ops by ~30% and saving 120+ engineer-hours per year; led a zero-downtime production migration from SQL Server 2016 to 2019 across 12 instances and 85 databases by staging replicas, rehearsing cutover runbooks, and validating with synthetic checks; implemented Always On Availability Groups and optimized top slow queries (plan guides, covering indexes, and parameter sniffing fixes) to reduce p95 latency from 420ms to 250ms; built Tableau and Grafana views to monitor job failures and query regressions, enabling weekly trend reviews with stakeholders.
Software Engineer at Wipro
May 1, 2021 - September 1, 2021
Rewrote row-by-row stored procedure logic into set-based operations for pharmacy datasets, lowering ETL time from ~27 min to ~8 min and improving reliability; built a PowerShell backup-check utility and wired it into CI/CD, adding pre-deploy guardrails that yielded zero missed backups across three environments in Q3 2021; performed schema conversion and established PostgreSQL test environments, standardizing dev data refresh scripts to keep feature branches reproducible; shipped weekly health dashboards (jobs, storage, waits) that surfaced top bottlenecks and informed the tuning backlog.
