PROFILE
Ashish Khatkar
Over five months, contributed to apache/paimon and Yelp/nrtsearch by building features focused on data integrity, schema evolution, and test reliability. Delivered configurable retry logic and error handling for the CDC writer in apache/paimon, improving operational resilience and data quality in Java and Flink-based pipelines. Enhanced schema management by introducing safeguards for nullable-to-not-null changes and supporting nested structure evolution, emphasizing safe migrations and flexible API design. In Yelp/nrtsearch, implemented dynamic port allocation for test utilities using Java, reducing CI flakiness and improving test stability. The work demonstrated depth in backend development, configuration management, and robust testing practices across complex data systems.
