Nice to meet you! 👋
Software Dev
I enjoy working across the stack on problems where system design, data correctness, and operational reliability matter, building software that is scalable, observable, and holds up under real-world constraints.

About Me 👻
Sheel TaskarSoftware Engineer💡
I focus on understanding systems end-to-end and framing the right problem, especially in systems where correctness and failure modes matter.
⚙️
I build data-intensive systems from edge devices through cloud pipelines, with a focus on correctness, observability, and reliability.
🏆
I take ownership of production systems, carrying them from initial design through operational stability and long-term maintenance.

- Built multi-threaded device frameworks for synchronized sensor capture, high-throughput recording, and reliable data publishing.
- Extended into cloud pipelines that convert raw uploads into reproducible, versioned training datasets.
- Owned infra + backend pieces like private-by-default boundaries, workload isolation, access controls, and observability.
- Contributed to internal tooling (e.g. annotation workflows) to ensure data quality at scale.
- Built a financial insights platform using automated pipelines to turn bank data into advisor-facing analysis.
- Implemented core ingestion + synchronization flows for accounts and transactions.
- Designed webhook processing to stay correct under retries and bursty updates.
- Added health monitoring to detect and recover from stale or broken connections.
- Helped ship an LLM-driven insight workflow producing grounded, reviewable outputs.
