I have had the pleasure of working with Faizulla during our time together at S7 Software and Blue Coat Systems. Faizulla's technical leadership, engineering team management, techno-commercial mindset / business acumen and perseverance were some of his core strengths that stood out to me while working with him. Faizulla was always willing to go the extra mile to ensure that the products we were developing were not just of the highest quality but also well aligned with the business/customer needs even when these were not explicitly/clearly called out due to his intuitive understanding of these non-technical requirements. Faiz's ability to understand both the business and the technical aspects has proven to be an invaluable competitive differentiator in multiple scenarios such as customer PoCs, account reviews/expansions, deal pursuits etc. leading to multiple business wins. His dedication and commitment to his work were evident in his leadership style and work ethic. Faizulla was always able to motivate his team to deliver their best work and was able to lead by example. Overall, Faizulla is an exceptional technical leader and people manager who would be an asset to any team. He is someone who is committed to excellence, and I have no doubt that he will continue to excel in his future endeavors.
