In my long career in software engineering and management, I have worked in many different roles contributing to development, design and architecture, Customer soution advisor, cybersecurity SME, and product management. I enjoyed all the roles and in this short article I woule like to write about Customer Solution Advisor role.
What I loved about this role was working with customers who faced tough problems. I got to see these challenges up close, which helped me stay updated with the latest technologies while solving these issues.
When I first started programming, my primary objective was straightforward: just complete the tasks assigned to me. However, as we are well aware, programming is not a a one-person job - it necessitates a team effort, particularly when developing large-scale applications. And therein lies the challenge.

Although the title of this article may appear unusual, it holds a significant truth. In Bangalore, the IT capital of India, many “professionals” are among the major culprits when it comes to riding their bikes on footpaths.
On a daily basis, I witness approximately 20-25 instances where individuals with backpacks recklessly choose to ride on footpaths to bypass traffic, and it’s likely that a considerable number of these individuals are employed by multinational companies.
