Bio
Jeff Plummer
Gaurang is easily one of the best engineers and technical leaders I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with in my 20 years of experience. He’s been the technical lead on my Marketing project for the past 3+ years, and there is no one that owns that project more than Gaurang. I have always been in awe of Gaurang’s ability to organize and simplify complex tasks across multiple teams and multiple disciplines. Thanks to Gaurang’s methodical nature, it is a guarantee that everyone will understand what they are doing, and that every edge case is covered. Things just run smoothly when Gaurang is involved. I can say without hesitation that Gaurange will be an amazing technical leader to any team lucky enough to have him.

I had the pleasure of working with Gaurang over 2 years on an internal Ticketmaster website for Marketing. His ability to merge his technical and communication skills is a very rare and valuable quality. Our team went through dramatic and unexpected pivots which he was able to handle with ease. His tireless dedication to quality software development and documentation ensured our team was successful in all of our projects.
