Arvind very quickly adapted to working in a multi cloud environment spanning AWS, Azure and GCP demonstrating a continuous learning and curiosity mindset. His programming skills in Python were highly sought after and he was applauded for his ability to identify edge cases leading to building high quality robust software. He does not shy away from asking questions but most importantly after having done his own research and in doing so has demonstrated to be an effective communicator. He is also a friendly and a fun person to work with
