SEEKING WORK - Remote
Over 5 years of experience in product startups with focus on system design. I take care of entire backend architecture from design, POCs, Performance testing, implementation and production roll-out.
Also, Migration, setting up backup, monitoring and other systems if required.
(Major) Skills: Python, ML/NLP/Analytics, Hadoop, Cassandra, Postgres/MySQL, EC2, S3, Django
I specialize in,
    Backend/Python development — POCs, rapid prototypes, load/performance testing etc.

    Server side/DB performance optimizations &amp; design to scale.

    Big Data consulting — Hadoop Ecosystem + Cassandra. Have evaluated Mongo, Couchbase, Riak, DynamoDB, EMR and redshift as well for client requirements. More importantly, I have a fairly strong understanding of distributed systems, CAP theorem, and experience in using these systems, which enables me to quickly shortlist datastore candidates based on the application requirements and financial/architectural constraints before spending more time and $$$ on load testing/POCs.

    Devops on Linux servers/EC2


    NLP/ML/Data Science Consulting — Sentiment Analysis, NER, Classification,Clustering,Statistical modelling
