Testimonials

“It was a pleasure working with Soumendra. He is very hard-working and sincere. He not only keeps himself up2date with the latest trends in technology but also openly imparts knowledge-sharing sessions to his team members and colleagues. Soumendra's ability to quickly scan through a new technology/concept, build a working prototype and do the demonstration is praise-worthy. Soumendra also believes in getting formal recognition for the new skills he requires, thus having many certifications to his credit... Soumendra is a very good team player. He leads by example but doesn't hesitate to help his team members if they get stuck. Owing to his pleasing personality and cool/calm work style, Soumendra handles interlocks/exchanges across the teams very well. These aspects of Soumendra's personality make him a great Technical Leader. I wish Soumendra the Best of Luck!!”
