L1
Lesson: Simple > Complex
Early on, I built pipelines that were too complex, harder to maintain and debug. I learned to keep workflows simple, modular, and scalable. Now I design for maintainability from day one.
L2
Lesson: Speed vs. Validation
Coming from startup environments, I sometimes built quickly without enough validation. I now balance speed with proper planning and testing to ensure long-term stability alongside fast delivery.
