Summary
Utkarsh Rai is an experienced data and software engineer with nine years building data pipelines, streaming systems, and analytic dashboards across startups, enterprise, and research labs. He has applied Scala, Python, Spark, Airflow, Kafka and cloud EMR to translate large, messy JSON/XML and log data into usable schemas and production workflows. Recently he’s focused on medical imaging at UAMS, improving lossless storage and progressive rendering of large images—an unusual blend of data engineering and applied imaging systems. Comfortable in both research and product contexts, he has produced clustering metrics in academic settings and trading signals in quant research, showing a knack for turning statistical insight into runnable systems. Based in Salt Lake City and aspiring to be a data architect, he pairs dashboard-first product sensibilities with deep pipes-and-storage experience.
