About me
Intro
I'm a software engineer with in-depth experience in designing and developing service oriented web applications using Java Technologies. Having 13+ years' background in creating innovative software solutions to improve business productivity, I have experienced in all aspects of the software development lifecycle from development to delivery. An experienced team-leader who trains team-members, monitors progress towards goals and a lifelong learner (currently focusing on blockchain technologies), love to read and research based on future technologies. Besides, I have strong communication, problem solving, organizational and delegation skills. My passion is to build the best infrastructure for the projects that I'm involving. I always push for the most efficient solution and never give up.
