What my clients say

Aria Pezeshk Co-Founder, Plato Systems

We worked with Jitesh during a crucial period of our start-up where we were building our cloud-based analytics platform from the ground-up. While we have a team of seasoned SW engineers, there were specific technical aspects of this 0-1 buildout that we needed external expertise for to get it to production. We were lucky to find Jitesh, he was very professional from start to finish, blended easily into our SW development practices, and the team found it very easy to work with him. He is a solid data engineer, familiar with esoteric details of various tech stacks, and all in all was a solid partner for us throughout the process.

Mike Henry Manager, Data Analytics at ARC Resources Ltd.

100% agree. Not only a skilled technical resource, but an absolute pleasure to work with. Just we for-warned, any future support we need from you guys, we’ll be asking for him by name!!

Jarriett Staff Data Engineer

Jitesh was incredible! His sole goal is to help you improve and he goes above and beyond to achieve that. In addition to his depth and breadth of knowledge, his commitment to the student sets him apart from other coaches. I highly recommend a session with Jitesh.

Joel Lowery Chief Information Officer, Audnatic

Jitesh was a pleasure to work with on our lakehouse build out project. He excelled at understanding our business logic and requirements, clarifying any ambiguities, and then translating them into code. The technical solutions he created were effective, clean, and easily maintainable. Furthermore, he was receptive to feedback and was open to making adjustments to fit his implementations into our standards and practices. Beyond just the tasks he worked directly on, Jitesh was an effective communicator – able to proactively provide helpful advice on other items and answer questions about the many technologies he is knowledgeable on. In conclusion, I think Jitesh reflects very well on Databricks and I was glad to have the chance to work with him and would definitely do so again in the future.

Sunil Muktibodh Senior Manager, Amazon

I have had the pleasure of working with Jitesh for 3+ years at Amazon. He is always curious to learn new technologies and implement them when the situation and use case apply. He is an expert at big data technologies and is always looking for ways to build simple solutions to seemingly complex problems. He has built and scaled pipelines that handle petabytes of data and his solutions have seldom resulted in operational issues post-deployment. I am hopeful we will work again!

Ala Qabaja Senior Data Engineer, Atlassian

Jitesh has played a crucial part in the success of this project. His enthusiasm, dedication, communication, ownership, and technical abilities are simply mind blowing. I don’t believe that I ever worked with someone for a period as short as 10 days that impressed me as much as Jitesh did. A true star of the show.

Billy Senior Data Engineer

Jitesh gave me an excellent overview of what to expect during the final round of Data Engineer interviews at Amazon as well as how best to prepare for them. He absolutely exceeded my expectations for today’s session. Highly recommended!

Lin Senior Program Manager

Jitesh is awesome to work with! He is very knowledgeable and experienced with data engineering concepts, and internal Amazon processes. He has helped me dramatically. Would highly recommend his coaching sessions for anyone interested in a data role at Amazon.

Blaine Senior Program Manager

This was my 3rd session with someone doing DE interviews & this was easily the best one. I liked the guidance to look into high level technical concepts without taking too much time digging into the details - that I can figure out offline on my own.

Abdullah Cloud & Data Engineer

My experience was good with Jitesh, Better than my expectations. It was like a coaching session, in which he guided well.

Eugene Data Engineer

Jitesh gave me specific recommendations on my career plan according to what is happening in the data engineering market. I’ve got detailed and honest answers to my questions. Very valuable session.

Minu Data Engineer

Jitesh had been very helpful to guide me throughout the interview. He is very quick to respond and goes above and beyond to help. It would not have been possible for me to crack the interview without his guidance. I would highly recommend him.

Nikhil Data Engineer

Jitesh was amazing. He has a no nonsense approach to things. He really helped in drafting a comprehensive prep plan for DE full time roles and explained it really well. Would definitely recommend him for anyone trying to get into DE roles.

Saeed Senior Data Engineer

This was my 4th session with Jitesh and he always keeps going above and beyond to make sure I need everything I need. With Jitesh’s excellent guidance, I managed to pass the phone interview round and we’re continuing to prepare for acing the final round. Keep up the great work Jitesh!

Venkata Data Engineer

Jitesh was extremely good at targeting the DOs and DON’Ts during the interview. His familiarity and broad exposure to systems design and database design concepts reflects the way he guides others in correct decision making during the design interviews. To add to his technical expertise and being up-to-date on the systems design areas, is his profound quality of going above and beyond to help candidates aces through the interviews. He never shuns off from taking the ownership of guiding the candidates throughout the process though he gets paid just for the one hour sessions here. Being extremely approachable is another quality that I like the most in him.
