Tell us about yourself.

I work as a Senior Software Engineer at Kovai.co for the past 6+ years. 

How did you start your Career at Kovai.co?

Previously, I was working in an IT firm based in Bangalore. One of my friends attended an interview in Kovai.co through a job consulting company based in Chennai. During his interview, my friend referred me to the company. Thankfully, I attended the interview and got the opportunity to work at Kovai.co.

Do you remember how Kovai.co was during the early days?

I joined as a 9th employee in the organization. Those days, we used to have lots of fun among ourselves. Since it was like a typical Startup company, we were able to connect with every employee on a personal level. We used to give a treat to each other, listen to songs during work and there was a happy aura in the company. 

What features did you actively involve in developing for Document360?

Right from the beginning, I owned a payment module for Document360. It was both challenging and helped me learned a lot about payment automation for a SaaS product. Apart from this, I also contributed to developing other modules but basically, payments were my core focus.

What’s your native place and how do you like Coimbatore?

I come from a small village called Karisalpatty in Dindigul district. I did my graduation and post-graduation in Coimbatore and I got used to living in this city. I am also happy to work in a place like Coimbatore.  

Tell us something we don’t know about you.

Since I am from an agricultural family, I used to watch videos related to water irrigation, creating organic manure for plants, Honeybee farming, etc. I don’t have time for implementing what I have learned, but that doesn’t stop me from exploring. 

What’s your hobby?

I used to spend time with my kid and watch useful videos. 

Tell us why someone should consider working at Kovai.co according to you.

The primary reason why someone should work at Kovai.co is that our CEO is a technology person. So it’s easy to convey our technical hurdles and also communicate to him easily. Kovai.co is also a comfortable place to work with where one will feel at home.

It is awesome to know Kovai.co provides opportunities for people to excel in their career with the motto #TogetherWeGrow
