Vaishnavi Kashyap

About

Full-stack/backend engineer who owned a production digital assembly planning platform at Saint Gobain end-to-end (React/Node/Postgres), maintaining 99.9% uptime across 5 factory sites and driving a reported 90% improvement in factory-floor coordination. Also built and operated BigQuery + Vertex AI (ARIMA) forecasting/data pipelines processing 1M+ datapoints daily, with strong emphasis on idempotency and data-quality validation to prevent incorrect outputs.

Key Strengths

• Owned end-to-end production full-stack platform (React/Node/Postgres) with 99.9% uptime
• Architected data model and built REST APIs used across 5 factory sites
• Improved factory-floor coordination by 90% by replacing a manual assembly documentation process with a real-time system
• Strong API contract discipline (documentation, consistent error shapes, avoiding breaking changes)
• Built and operated BigQuery pipelines processing 1M+ data points daily
• Implemented data-quality gates and drift checks before running Vertex AI forecasting workflows
• Pragmatic observability approach combining logs with end-user dashboards to catch anomalies
