  President

  I was responsible for devising ways to improve the quality of the activities and events as well as their execution and organization at the institute.Me and my team joined Microsoft Tech Club in a difficult period when the club did not have a good image among the students due to less number of activities and low Social Media presence.Our successes included a good social media presence on almost all platforms, the increase in number of events by 40% and the increase in turnover rate by 60% for the workshops and events conducted by the at our institute.The highlight was the AI Gaming and the workshop series called "Technobuzz" which we started in our university. It was aimed at helping students explore the opportunities and career options available in the tech industry as many students are still confused as to which career in tech they should pursue.Aligning with the club's vision and my personal goal of helping the community grow and become better, I am proud to say that we helped 100+ students at our university in exploring and identifying their potential.

  Oct 2019 - Aug 2020

  Officer - Business Transformation

  This was the first job after my Bachelor's degree. Being a fresher with no experience and an industry as complex as insurance was a challenge I was willing to take because I knew this adventure was going to be full of learning and going to shape my career.The first challenge that was given to me was developing a portal frontend on Angular and deliver in 2 weeks. The only problem was that I had no clue about web development as I came from Mobile and Desktop App development background. Learning from internet and existing code day and night of other existing Angular apps which were running, I was successfully able to deliver the project in 2 weeks. That gave me a confidence boost and was definitely a turning point.With the knowledge of Azure, I was able to contribute to optimize the costs of Infrastructure hosted on azure and cut down the costs to one thirds.My responsibilities as a Digital Business Transformation Officer included: • Full stack Development and Maintenance of Backoffice and multiple Customer-facing portals with Angular and .NET Core • Designing and Implementing integration with Payfort (now Amazon Payment Services) • Providing production support • Liaising with external brokers to develop B2B2C payment integrations with their application • Strategizing and Implementing solutions to boost business digitally • Managing Cloud Resources on Azure • Leading and Training a team of Interns Show less
