Software Developer On Permanent Beta - Learning, Improving, Evolving
More About MeI code for a living, and take pride in whatever I do. I am on a "permanent beta",
always learning new things, improving what I already know and evolving myself.
I love being involved in projects that I can be proud of, while working with an amazing
team of people.
I practice and preach eXtreme Programming principles like TDD and pair programming to
deliver utmost value with shortest time to market.
I am a result oriented professional as well as an adaptable team player. I like ot interact with people while sharing and learning from their experiences.
I have hands-on experience of multiple techologies both front-end and back-end while working in an agile environment.
I am currently developing a web-based solution for aiding sales employees of the client to effectively and easily design quotes and present the same to business customers using a web portal. Majorly used spring based Kotlin micro services to design back end and React JS with redux for front end.

graduate degree can.

the college.
IDK - June 2011
The place which gave me the friends for my lifetime and cultivated a spark of learning and innovation within me.
I like to develop small (sometimes very large - non completeable :P) assignments to keep myself busy. Please give them a look, ideas/suggestions are welcome.
I am always open for interesting technical work/discussion. Hit me up if you are doing some super cool stuff and think that I can somehow contribute to it.
