Rami Reddy Thammineni

Having worked with Rohan on multiple projects, the biggest thing he brings into the mix is his energy or enthusiasm. He asks the right questions, finds answers to address all gaps and ensures that all elements are run in a way that neither timelines or end quality are compromised. One can easily rely on him to be the hub of any engagement while he ensures that all spokes are well connected and efficiently working towards a common objective. He is bound to be an invaluable member of any team he is a part of.

When Rohan joined my team as a new recruit fresh out of college, I was pleasantly surprised to see his passion and professionalism. What stood out for me was his eye for detail in the work he did. He is truly a professional who is willing to go the extra mile to understand business processes and apply that in his work. I wish him all the very best!
