Data Engineer · Pacific Northwest
Hey, I'm Raniendu
I build data systems that empower teams to make smarter, data-driven decisions. My journey in tech has taken me through some of the industry's biggest names, including Amazon, Meta, and AWS.
Based in the Greater Seattle Area, I spend my days architecting and maintaining robust data platforms. Outside of work, you'll find me exploring new cities or tinkering with personal projects.
My Story
I cut my teeth at AWS, learning to manage massive datasets and ensure the smooth operation of critical pipelines. A later chapter at Meta introduced me to the fascinating (and occasionally terrifying) world of real-time ads telemetry. Today, I'm back at Amazon, helping the Ads team navigate their complex data landscape.
What drives me? I'm passionate about transforming messy, chaotic data into clear, actionable insights. Whether it's building a streaming pipeline that processes millions of events per second or ensuring analysts can trust their dashboards, I find satisfaction in making data useful. The highlight of my work is collaborating with brilliant, dedicated people who share a commitment to quality.
