Bayan Khalili is a Lead Engineer based in Melbourne with 13 years of hands-on software and data engineering experience and two decades of broader technical and analytical work. She has repeatedly designed and operated high-scale data platforms—most notably a pipeline processing 10+ billion records daily for Vodafone—and built flagship products that materially grew revenue at startups and enterprise firms. At RMIT she combined advanced mathematical optimisation with data engineering to accelerate reporting by 25x and uncovered systemic data duplication that changed governance practices. A polyglot who learns a new language each year, she blends practical DevOps and on-call discipline with coaching and team wellbeing to raise engineering standards. Her background spans from deep optimisation (CPLEX, Gurobi) to cloud data stacks (Snowflake, dbt) and product-focused web development, giving her rare breadth across research-grade modelling and production systems.
