I am an aspiring Software Engineer keen to get back into IT. I am a creative individual who finds
developing software solutions immensely rewarding. I have been intrigued by technologies for as long
as I could remember and have always wanted to help create robust software systems using cutting edge
technologies that help progress mankind. Helping with the advancement of humanity through technology,
is something I am passionate about, which I think I can achieve being a software engineer.
I have a Bachelor Of Engineering degree in Information Technology with a history of working for Cisco
Offshore Development Centre, world leader in providing network solutions. I was recognised with SPARC
award from HCL Technologies for achieving high level of customer satisfaction which shows my positive
work ethics.
The process of contributing to develop a software, then watching it flourish, I believe, is extremely
rewarding. The best part of having a software engineering career for me seems to be the problem-solving
aspect - I will face numerous challenges, but I will try to solve them utilising the knowledge and skills
I have acquired previously and with the ones I am constantly learning, combined with my creativity and
imagination. I am always eager to learn new technologies and to utilize my knowledge to my highest
ability. Eventually, I want to feel proud and satisfied on my performance wherever I work.
