Building data systems that solve real problems.
I'm Maheshwar Raj Shrestha — a data engineering and business systems professional focused on reliable pipelines, cloud data platforms, automation, and turning complex requirements into practical solutions.
01 / About
A little about me.
A technical professional who enjoys sitting between data, engineering and business.
My career has grown from software and data work into roles where I solve data problems, understand business requirements and help teams turn those requirements into reliable technical solutions.
My strongest foundation is SQL and data engineering. I work across ETL/ELT, cloud data platforms, healthcare data, analytics and workflow automation — while continuously expanding toward data architecture and solution architecture.
