01. About Me

Building Cloud-Native Data Intelligence

I'm Ganesh Kumar, a Solutions Architect at Zeb Consulting — specializing in AWS cloud architecture, data platforms, and AI/GenAI solutions with hands-on experience designing secure, scalable, and cost-optimized systems in production environments.

My work focuses on building end-to-end cloud architectures aligned to the AWS Well-Architected Framework — covering cloud strategy, large-scale migrations, high availability, modern data lakehouse platforms, and AI/GenAI enablement on AWS.

I'm AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional, with additional certifications across Databricks, Snowflake, and GenAI. I enjoy working at the intersection of cloud engineering, data architecture, and AI innovation.
