Harsh Thakkar

I am a Software Engineer currently working as a Data Engineer, where I design and build data warehousing solutions, ETL pipelines, and scalable data workflows that enable reliable and efficient data-driven systems. My work involves transforming complex data into actionable insights while ensuring performance, reliability, and maintainability across the data platform.

Beyond data engineering, I have a strong foundation in backend development, distributed systems, cloud-native technologies, and system design. I am passionate about building scalable, resilient, and production-ready software, with a particular interest in cloud architecture, platform engineering, infrastructure automation, observability, and site reliability engineering.

My technical experience spans Java, Go, Python, cloud platforms such as AWS and GCP, containerization and orchestration with Docker and Kubernetes, Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD automation, databases, messaging systems, and distributed system design. Backed by strong computer science fundamentals in Data Structures & Algorithms, Object-Oriented Programming, Networking, and System Design, I enjoy solving complex engineering challenges with a focus on long-term scalability and operational excellence.

I am continuously exploring the intersection of software engineering, cloud infrastructure, and reliability engineering, and enjoy connecting with professionals who share an interest in building secure, performant, and highly available systems at scale.
