Manikant Goutam
Sr Data Engineer in Bhopal, MP, India
Senior Data Engineer at EPAM Systems with 6+ years of building data platforms that teams can trust. Today I work on LSEG's security master data, building Python and Spark pipelines on AWS with Airflow, Glue and Athena.
Before EPAM, I scaled audience measurement pipelines at Nielsen, built partner analytics at Autodesk, a Spark-on-Kubernetes reporting engine at IDFC FIRST Bank, and an audience builder for about 400 million users at ZEE5, including near real-time ad targeting.
My toolkit: Spark, PySpark, Scala, Python, SQL, Airflow, AWS (EMR, Glue, Athena, S3), Kafka, Iceberg, Delta Lake and Trino.
These days I'm deep into AI agents, streaming and system design. I mentor engineers on Topmate, write about data engineering on LinkedIn and Medium, and love turning messy, repetitive work into clean automation.
