Hi,
My name is Guneet Sahai & I’m a Java Developer based out of Gurgaon (India) working towards my goals. This website is basically a blog (powered by wordpress) & is primarily my mode of reaching out to the world. To read my blog posts, please click on the “Blog” link on the right.
An Engineering graduate from IIT Roorkee (class of 1999), I have enjoyed working at startups since 1999 and am now addicted to them. I’m currently working for Xebia – India which is an IT consultancy and project organization focusing on Enterprise Java technology, Agile development methods and outsourcing services. Previously I have worked as a freelance software engineer (Why?) in various roles (From Architect to Developer) & have also taken a shot at entrepreneurship along with a friend. Since I have spent so much time at startups, I think I have now been *institutionalized* by them. For more information about my professional career, please have a look at my linked in profile (link below)
I’m passionate about developing software. My experience has been mostly in developing back-end pieces that are often not visible. I get my kicks out of writing thread safe code that performs well at high loads. Most of my experience has been in working with product development organizations where one gains more depth in knowledge as compared to width (due to constant improvements required in the product). For more details, please see my resume here.
Mostly my experience has been with Java, but more recently I have tried my hand at other technologies as well – PHP, C#, Apex (Salesforce Application development). After coding in these languages I don’t think that programming language is a barrier for me any more.
