Summary
Raman Jhajj is a data and software engineering leader with over a decade of hands-on experience and 4+ years in leadership, currently serving as Director of Engineering at Avalanche Insights where he builds AI-driven analytics platforms to improve analyst workflows. He combines deep technical fluency across AWS, Python, Spark, Kafka, Docker and MLOps with a track record of architecting cost-efficient data platforms—previously cutting ingestion costs by ~30% and standing up a healthtech data engineering vertical from scratch. Comfortable shipping both backend systems and product-facing data solutions, he has led real-time streaming, data lake, and enterprise ETL initiatives at companies including Skillz and Betsson. A mentor and cross-functional collaborator, Raman pairs rigorous MSc training from Göttingen with a pragmatic focus on aligning data infrastructure to business outcomes. He’s equally likely to sketch system designs in a sprint as he is to discuss research papers over coffee, and prioritizes building teams that turn data into measurable impact.
