01 โ€” About

Building the backbone
of data-driven decisions.

I am Ganpat Patel, a Data Engineer based in Paris. I design and build robust, scalable data platforms โ€” from real-time ingestion across diverse sources to orchestrated workflows using Airflow, distributed processing with PySpark and Databricks and modern cloud platforms across GCP, Azure and AWS.

Recently at Deezer, I built a CI/CD migration framework, transitioning pipelines from Jenkins to GitHub Actions, while auditing and redesigning existing workflows. In parallel, I worked on a GCP-based monitoring solution to improve FinOps visibility and cloud cost tracking. Prior to that at Mu Sigma, I led a team managing a large suite of ADF pipelines and production data assets, spearheaded a data integrity initiative recalibrating hundreds of Hive tables to resolve historical data corruption, and developed a Neo4j graph analytics MVP to identify disease trends in pet healthcare.
