Principal Solution Architect, Databricks
I’ve been at Databricks for 7.5 years, helping customers modernize their data stacks and build AI applications that scale to production. Last 2 years I’ve focused on Telecom Industry.
During my time at Databricks, I've worked closely with customers’ data science, engineering, and executive teams to align on strategy, architecture, and measurable impact
Before Databricks, I led data science and ML engineering teams in the advertising and tech space…still a huge adtech nerd at heart!
I started my career in physics academia, which turns out to be great training for optimising compute, debugging distributed systems and ML models
