Testimonials

Visited different countries & met lot of people throughout companies. Earned love, respect & trust. Therefore I got some testimonials too.

Manager

Sean O'Connor

Mandar is a terrific colleague. He has developed an impressive depth and breadth in Kubernetes (k8s) in a short time. I enjoy his technical insight and rigor, while balanced with an engaging and collaborative demeanor. I could certainly say more, but only to Lucidworks management : -).

Digital Commerce Solutions Architect at Lucidworks

Tim Kuenster

Prior to Mandar's joining the team at Cirrus10, I used and relied on the information he distilled about the Endeca Search Engine on his personal blog as it was filled with real world examples and actionable information. That speaks to his passion and dedication to dive into problems and share his learnings, not only with his direct teams, but to the world in general. I find that a very admirable trait in our tech world where many regard knowledge as a personal asset and do not share readily. I've watched him take on many high profile projects and customers over the years and was lucky to be able to work directly on a couple of projects. Excellent self starter, I'd have him on my team anytime.

Digvijay Raut

Mandar has very good knowledge of Endeca. He is the fastest learner, I have seen him learning ATG in very short period of time. You can ask him for any quick help, he is always ready to help you out.
