About

Hi, I am Aniket, a Solutions Engineer at Confluent, founded by creators of Apache Kafka, based out of Bengaluru. I got my hands dirty working in Hevo Data and Criteo in a similar capacity. Hevo lets their user build data pipelines. I was working with data teams across industries & geographies and helped them develop their modern data stack. In contrast, Criteo is an Adtech platform for the open internet competing with the likes of Google. In my past life, I worked as a Software Engineer for an E-Commerce startup based out of Gurugram. My tech stack used to be around MERN with a pinch of Redis and MySQL in between. One winter, I decided to jump ships and started working in a client-facing role. In my University days, I engaged in multiple clubs, startups, fests and whatnot. To name a few, I led the Sponsorship team at the Entrepreneurial Fest, was IT Manager for the IEEE Chapter and was the initial contributor in the Technology Team at a startup. If you are looking for someone like me or part of the same journey, feel free to drop a Hi. IF YOU WANT A REFERRAL, FEEL FREE TO DROP ME A MESSAGE. When I am not working, one can find me in a cafe. I love to meet new people and learn from their stories. I have a newfound love for newsletters (yeah, you read it right). I am also preparing for a half-marathon.
