About Me

Pooja Niranjan Shetty

Hi👋, I'm Pooja Shetty

I'm a 28-year-old Software Engineer, wife, and proud mom to a beautiful baby girl born in February 2025.

Originally from Bangalore, India, I spent 3 amazing years living and working in the Netherlands as a Software Engineer (Data | DevOps) at KPN.

Professionally, I'm specialized in Data engineering and DevOps. Over the years, I’ve worked extensively with technologies such as Python, JavaScript, SQL, and AWS. My daily tech stack also included Pandas, CI/CD pipelines, Docker, Jenkins, Artifactory, Git, Grafana, Splunk, and various testing frameworks (unit, smoke, and functional testing).

I made the decision to return to India during my seventh month of pregnancy due to limited support abroad and family health concerns. Traveling beyond that point was medically restricted, so I relocated early to ensure a safe delivery and better care. I am now ready to return to work and am actively seeking opportunities where I can leverage my skills and experience.

Beyond the Code

A glimpse into my life outside work

When I'm not building software, I'm building memories with my family. I became a mom in February 2025, and it's been the most incredible journey of my life.

I believe in bringing the same dedication and problem-solving mindset from my professional life into parenting and personal growth.
