Hi Kafka-ers, My name is Vijay Bhat and I'm very interested in contributing to the Apache Kafka project. A little about myself: My background is in CS and I've been focusing on Hadoop / Big Data technologies for designing scalable data infrastructures for the past few years. I also enjoy working on the data science side of things (formulating, building, testing, deploying ML models). I've also contributed a few patches to YARN, HDFS and Hadoop Common.
I've read a lot about Kafka and had the chance to play around with it a little for one of my projects, and it seems very cool! I'd love to contribute to Kafka and do my part to help the project. I'd really appreciate it if I could be added to the contributor list. Thanks! Vijay
