Milind Kulkarni is a data scientist with a strong blend of data engineering and ML production experience, backed by an M.S. in Data Science from University at Buffalo and nine years in industry. He builds scalable ETL/ELT pipelines and end-to-end analytics platforms—cutting processing times from weeks to days and delivering significant cost savings and faster decision-making for clients. Comfortable across cloud stacks (AWS, GCP, Snowflake) and tooling (Spark, Airflow, DBT, SageMaker), he also prototypes generative-AI agents and real-time ML systems that automate decisions. He’s led teams to improve delivery velocity and mentoring, while applying less-common techniques like Topological Data Analysis to surface subtle user patterns. Based in Buffalo, NY, Milind is driven by shipping measurable product impact and rapidly learning new stacks, and he enjoys exploring “what-if” scenarios for AI over a good cup of coffee.
