Hi, I’m Swapnil — a Staff Data Scientist working on large-scale data systems, analytics, and applied machine learning. I’ve spent several years solving real-world problems across data engineering and ML, with a focus on building scalable systems that actually work in production. While I’m relatively new to formal mentoring, I’ve been helping peers and early-career professionals with career decisions, interview prep, and technical growth — and I enjoy keeping things practical, honest, and grounded in real experience. I can help you with: • Breaking into Data Science / Data Engineering roles • Transitioning from backend/software roles into data • Building strong fundamentals in Spark, distributed systems, and ML • Understanding real-world system design for data platforms • Career clarity and growth strategies in tech If you’re looking for practical, experience-based guidance, I’d be happy to help.
