I had the privilege to work with Prakash during our 2 years of IoT adventure. I was always impressed by the way he focuses on the final goal and never lets it slip away. Prakash has been leading the QE organization of the product rigorously and was constantly aware of and closely followed each step of the plan to make it to the finish line on time. Being his peer on the development side, we've had our fair share of heated discussions, and I can easily say that Prakash has been always reasonable and a team player working for the success of the whole team and the product as a whole. I am sure that any R&D organization would benefit from having a focused and dedicated leader as Prakash in its team.
