Versatile Craftsman(Software Engineer/Baker/Writer/Football Geek/Singer/Songwriter)
Thank you for bumping into my Github profile. Well, I am still building it by stocking up some of my pretty awesome projects 😀, while you can also have a look at some of other decent work via my public repositories. One step at a time I manage to bring the best of my different avatars from solving real-world problems by writing neat and comprehensive code to creating fluffy cakes in the kitchen, yes! I also love to pen down my thoughts through blogs on the internet for various media firms. Come weekends, I allow my most favourite avatar to take the limelight and showcase my football skills on the field and also support my beloved Manchester United to then coming home and writing some pretty decent songs while I strum my guitar.
I am currently employed as a Senior Software Engineer 💻 at LenDenClub (India's Largest P2P Lending Platform) where I get to follow my passion and love for computers and and also showcase my coding skills to solve real-world, complex engineering problems.
"I aspire to be a Software Engineer when I grow up" These were the exact words of a 12-year-old Glen Veigas, as little did I know about the tasks of a Software Engineer, although I knew what I wanted to be. Though the tale of me finding my true love for computers and coding came up late while pursuing my Bachelor's Degree in CSE, though those parentheses and semi-colons never excited me, I ended up spending most of my time in rectifying silly syntax errors, while I almost gave up on coding due to this, Python rolled in to salvage my dream, little by little my ideas started to get the shape followed by sleepless nights solving problems on HackerRank and LeetCode.
I was spellbound by how 10 lines of code could build something awesome, which led me to dive into exploring new technologies. My first ever full stack web-app was Pointer Analysis Tool built with Python and Flask, this project really drove the confidence in me to dive into this beautiful world of Programming and Software Development. With my skillset and zeal to learn I bagged 2 Full-Time opportunities in India's biggest MNCs in my final year of Engineering. So, now in the industry, I am living this dream where my passion remains with me but my desire to learn keeps me up and running to get better in what I do, as I hanker to be in a league of 'The Best'.
