Emmanuel Kwalombota

I had the pleasure of working with Pankaj for over 2 years. During that time, he proved himself to be reliable and consistent. He was easy to work with and always focused on practical solutions to problems. His ability to find elegant solutions and be able to explain them to non-technical folks (like myself) was always appreciated and welcomed. It would be great to work with him again.

Pankaj is an extremely talented software developer and architect. His ability to analyze a problem and provide a well thought out solution is top notch. Pankaj also excels at getting along with others and mentoring junior developers. Highly recommended to any prospective employer!
