Hi, I am Lalit! I have been working in the software industry for the last 18 years. At present, I am the Lead Platform Architect at Amdocs. Before Amdocs, I worked at Verizon Dell Technologies, to name a few. I have built global SaaS products and various large-scale systems and pursue a broader organizational impact. I enjoy being a reliable technical/engineering partner. Mentoring is an essential pursuit for me. Early in my career, I was fortunate to get guidance from good mentors. Also, I learned a lot from people whose writing and open-source work have influenced me. Not everyone has the fortune to get guidance and mentoring. This is why I always wanted to set that chain reaction of “paying it forward.” I had mentored a handful of engineers and people in different roles. However, ''The Mentoring Club'' allowed me to scale myself as a mentor. I love interacting with people from different cultures, nationalities, and backgrounds. The diversity itself brings a different perspective and makes things wholesome. As a mentor, I understand your context, situational background, goals, and specific challenges. Then, usually, navigate with you to zero down on a few approaches. After the first session, we can take the semi-structured or structured approach if needed. Just a note: I may not have all the answers you seek. In that case, I will honestly say so and find the ones with you. I love to keep these sessions as a dialogue. I hope this provides enough details for you to make a decision. “Every mountaineer needs a Sherpa!” Hope to see you in session soon!!
