Bio
Vikas Ram Bhat. BE, MSc, PMP®, MSP®
Karthik was a test lead and test manager in our organisation for 4 years and in a very short period of time was able to get a good grasp of the technology and the applications in use. His inter-personal communication was always good, and in addition in the 4 years, he has strived to improve this even further and use it effectively. He has used the above skills in addition to his testing and team management skills to effectively manage testing phases within key projects and deliver on time, to a high standard of quality. I have seen on numerous occasions that he takes personal interest in ensuring the customer is satisfied and their expectations are met. These qualities will take him far and I have no hesitation in recommending him and working with him in the future if the opportunity arises

I worked with Karthik in a testing engagement for a retail Client for Sogeti ireland in Dublin in 2015 . His ability to nurture and guide his Team mates through complex projects with calm and composure is impressive. He strives to continuously improve his knowledge on the system and always lends a helping hand to people asking for technical assistance. It was a pleasure working with him.
