👋 G’day, I’m Mihir!#
I’m a Data Engineer based in Bendigo, Australia 🇦🇺 — originally from Mumbai, India 🇮🇳.
I work at Bendigo Health as a Business Intelligence Analyst, building reports in Power BI and Microsoft Fabric and data pipelines from multiple sources — primarily using SQL and PySpark across data lakehouses and warehouses.
Outside of work I’m building MiSAI — My Intelligent System for Analysis and Inferences — a personal AI assistant running entirely on my home Raspberry Pi 5 lab. No cloud. No subscriptions. Just pure self-hosted intelligence. 🤖

🌏 Beyond the Code#
When I’m not wrangling data or tinkering with my home lab:
- 🏏 Cricket fan
- ☕ Chai over coffee — always!
- 🏖️ Dreaming of a beach house (working on it! 😄)
