14+ Years Experience
2,000+ Students Placed
Specialisation: AWS Data Platforms, PySpark & Big Data Pipelines
Certifications: AWS Certified Data Engineer - Associate, Databricks Certified Data Engineer Associate
Previously: Amazon, Cognizant

Karthik has built and led production data platforms for retail and banking clients. His classes run on live AWS labs from day one: students don't just watch pipelines, they build, break and fix them. Known for his "explain it like an interviewer" style, he personally reviews every capstone project so students walk into interviews with answers, not just code.

Deva handles the foundations that decide whether a student finishes job-ready: SQL, Python, Linux and Git. A former enterprise data lead, he drills students through hundreds of hands-on queries and scripts, and his weekend doubt-clearing sessions are a student favourite. Many of his learners started with no IT background at all.

Course FAQs

Everything you need to know about the Data Engineering programme, certification, placements and how we handle your data.

Data Engineering is one of the fastest-growing, highest-paying domains in technology, with demand across Chennai's IT corridor and pan-India product and service companies. This course prepares you to build production-grade data pipelines, gain hands-on expertise across the modern data stack, and qualify for Data Engineer, Analytics Engineer and BI Engineer roles with salaries from Rs 10L to 45+L per year.
Data Engineering builds the pipelines, warehouses and platforms that move and prepare data. Data Science analyses that data to build models and predictions. Companies hire for both, and data engineering roles are typically more numerous - every data science team depends on the pipelines data engineers build.
The complete modern data stack: SQL and Python foundations, AWS (S3, Glue, Lambda, Athena, Kinesis, RDS, Redshift), PySpark for big data processing, Snowflake for cloud warehousing, dbt for tested transformations, Airflow and Step Functions for orchestration, and Power BI for dashboards - connected in one end-to-end capstone project.
You will receive an industry-recognized Greens Technologies Data Engineering Course Completion Certificate, plus structured preparation guidance for global credentials: AWS Certified Data Engineer - Associate, Snowflake SnowPro Core, Microsoft Power BI Data Analyst (PL-300) and Databricks Certified Data Engineer Associate. Provider exams are optional and their fees are separate.
Our dedicated placement cell provides end-to-end placement assurance: resume preparation with trainer review, technical and behavioral mock interviews, Naukri and LinkedIn profile building, interview scheduling support and job opening updates, with continued guidance until you are placed.
