Hi, I am Rahul.
I work as Principal Engineer and Team Lead at Bobsled, looking after their data engineering and AI products.
I have been writing code for over 20 years. When I am not working, I spend some of my time helping out open source communities in the Data space. Prior to Beat, I worked at Beat (part of FreeNow), Omio as Principal Engineering Manager and at Thoughtworks (https://www.thoughtworks.com/) as a Lead Consultant. I was born and raised in India and have lived and worked in several cities around the world. I currently live in Berlin Germany.
Mentoring is very close to my heart. When I started out in my career, I did not have anyone I could look up to as a mentor/advisor and I sorely felt this gap. Filling this sort of gap effectively for someone else has since been a very important personal goal for me. My own life experiences, pitfalls and learnings have led me to strongly believe that good and timely mentoring can be extremely helpful in breaking myths and overcoming self-doubts that stop most of us from achieving our full potential.
As a mentor, my approach is informal and non-judgmental. During the mentoring sessions, I focus on your specific challenges and then offer my own personal viewpoints and experiences. Together we can find ways to apply these approaches and lessons to your own needs. Personally, I find this sort of empathetic exchange preferable to the top-down advice approach. If this works for you as well, I welcome you to book a session with me.
