Speaker bio

I have been working as a data engineer at Mapbox from last 2 years and responsible for architecting data pipeline projects there. As of now, I am focussing on building data validation pipeline for OpenStreetMap which is one of the biggest open data project. I have also worked with wikidata and gnome organization in the past. I keep an interest in Machine learning and right now experimenting with it. I am happy to talk about Maps, open data projects and open source softwares. :)
