Sharad Chandel

Engineering lead, 7 years in. I run the engineering team at DWAO, a martech company, where we build the services and pipelines behind marketing analytics, the warehouse they land in, and the ML and LLM systems that sit on top.

Client applications call the API and services layer, which emits events into ingest alongside Google Analytics 4, Mixpanel and Adobe Marketing Cloud. Ingest loads the warehouse, which feeds the analytics layer and a feature layer serving the models. The models are exposed through the serving API back to the product.ClientsAPI / ServicesServing APIGA4MixpanelAdobe MCIngest / ETLWarehouseAnalyticsFeaturesModels

  1. Engineering Lead

    Digital Web Analytics and Optimization LLP

    Lead the engineering team. Own the services and pipelines that move Google Analytics 4, Mixpanel and Adobe Marketing Cloud data into AWS and GCP, and the warehouse behind them. Extended the platform into machine learning: feature pipelines, customer segmentation and recommendation models, deployment workflows, and LLM-powered analytics tooling.

03About

I design and optimize data pipelines and the systems around them. Over the past several years that has meant Apache tooling, Python, SQL, Go and Node.js on AWS, GCP and Databricks, wired into Adobe Marketing Cloud, Google Analytics 4 and Mixpanel.

More recently the same work has extended into machine learning: feature pipelines, training and serving infrastructure, and production ML and LLM systems for marketing analytics. These days I lead the engineering team that builds and runs all of it.

Happy to talk about pipelines, ML systems or LLM tooling.
