Hi, I'm Harsha. I completed my Bachelors of Engineering in 2012. After that I started working in Tata Consultancy Services, worked on a couple of different projects, worked in Home Depot. After about three and a half years working for TCS, I was interested in learning more about data and how data analytics help businesses. So I started applying for Masters in Information Systems, got into the University of Utah! After coming to the University of Utah, got an opportunity to take an internship at Nike, after which I also decided to take up the full time job opportunity at Nike. Currently working at Nike as Software Engineer!

On the cloud platform engineering team, our main focus is to provide tools for other developers at Nike, to enable them to do fast and safe deployments to the club. We also evaluate, like the latest cloud technology that keep coming to the market. We make recommendations based on app and engineering teams' use case. We measure all the deployments of Nike through our products. We have KPIs, we monitor measure of the deliverables. Our core working hours are 8- 5, but they're very flexible on that. Focus is more on delivering results, that's all the hours put in.

My go-to for any app kind of development work. Especially since Java 8, I'm really loving all the functional features that we're manning. As far as frameworks go, Spring and Hibernate, I use them a lot. Spring, I really like all the features they have bean adding, especially the security features. The JPA features makes database interaction so much easier. We also tend to write a lot of doobie scripts and do a little bit of scholar here and there. So as scripting goes, Python is like my go-to for scripting, even for like data analysis and stuff. I feel like handling data in python is much more efficient and simpler. I would love to get into the functioning core Paradigm. So love to learn something like Haskell or Clojure. As far as tools go, Docker is like my everyday tool. I love docker a lot, helps me replicate like different environments on my laptop, easier to package your applications and stuff. I work a lot on Jenkins. Starting to learn a little bit about kubernetes and terrapin, app development and deployment on kubernetes.
