Viraj has a track record of delivering end-to-end solutions: automating ETL pipelines, designing MS SQL servers with SSIS, and shipping stakeholder-facing dashboards that drive decisions. He’s comfortable in both production environments and stakeholder-facing roles, regularly presenting results and peer-reviewing code for quality and control reporting. Trained with distinction in data management and analytics from the University of Sydney, he blends rigorous academic training with pragmatic engineering. Based in Mumbai, he brings a creative mindset (his GitHub motto: "Programming is the new wizardry") to practical, impact-driven data work.
