Work Experience

The Walt Disney Company Plano, TX

Big Data Engineer Apr 2021 to Current

-Conformed landing data in Apache Kafka using Apache Flink on Java.

-Conformed tables with the landing data based on a mapping doc designed by the conformance team. Sometimes these tables required joins in order to form driving tables and dependent tables. Depending on the sizes of these tables, the task slots on the Flink cluster were allocated accordingly, and conformed data was then ported to Snowflake.

-Programmed in Java using Eclipse IDE.

-Used AWS services like EC2 and S3 for small data sets processing and storage.

-Utilized Confluent KSQL streaming SQL engine to enable real-time data processing against Apache Kafka.

-Created complex SQL queries for data aggregation and analysis.

-Tracked tasks, sprints, stories, and backlog management using Jira Agile development software.

-Developed and maintained build/deployment scripts for testing, staging, and production environments using Maven build lifecycle framework.

-Used Kinesis Data Analytics (KDA) to analyze streaming data, gain actionable insights, and respond to business and customer needs in real time.

-Used AWS Systems Manager service to view and control the AWS infrastructure and resources.

-Used Conduktor interface for real-time visualization into Kafka topics.

-Used DBeaver open-source multiplatform database management tool for easy accessibility to databases and cloud applications.

-Configured CI/CD pipeline through Jenkins, GitHub, and GitLab.

-Performed technical troubleshooting of .log and .err files.

-Used Curl schema registry to test APIs.

-Developed Spark UDFs using Scala for better performance.

-Utilized Confluence tool for documentation.

-Partitioning and bucketing in ranges the log file information to differentiate information on a commonplace and combination supported business needs.

-Deployed the applying jar files into AWS EC2 instances.

-Developed a task execution framework on EC2 instances mistreatment using lambda and Airflow.

-A data pipeline that connects to the Internal weather search API, using Kafka (via a Python file) to produce data.

-The producer sends stores the data on the broker once it has been serialized.

-The necessary data is extracted and converted into a structured DataFrame (with custom schema).

-In this format the data is stored as a table in Hive, where analysis can be performed.
