About Me

Nishan Holla

I’m a Data Engineer at Zeta, focused on building scalable data systems, pipelines, and backend infrastructure that power financial products.

I work across data ingestion, transformation, and analytics layers, with a focus on reliability, performance, and clean system design. I prefer understanding systems end-to-end rather than working in isolation.

Outside of work, I spend time building side projects, automating workflows, and improving my depth in system design and distributed systems concepts.
