Educator to Innovator: The Professor's Presales Odyssey
Commencing my professional journey as an educator, I eventually recognized the potential of my engineering background and ventured into the private telecom sector, marking the inception of my Nokia career. Joining Nokia in 2010 as a Solution Engineer, I've since undertaken diverse roles, culminating in my current position as a Solution Manager. I've been a part of the Nokia family for 14 years, and I can confidently say that the journey has been nothing short of amazing, filled with valuable learning experiences. Beyond my professional pursuits, I find fulfillment in spearheading StrongHer Noida, an initiative dedicated to fostering Inclusion and Diversity. Additionally, driven by my passion for public speaking, I proudly serve as an Area Director within Toastmasters International.
Lead the creation & development of end-to-end Business Apps solutions.
I provide Pre-Sales Support for Business Applications solutions across the globe. I work as a Subject Matter Expert for Real-time monitoring and IoT solutions. I work with the R&D and Product Line on product enhancement. I handle ramp-up plans for new products and develop automated tools to bring efficiency.
In addition to that, I lead StrongHer Noida, an initiative to support Inclusion and Diversity.
It is fueling my passion
In my current role, I find myself in the fortunate position of being able to connect my passion with my profession. The intrinsic reward lies in the daily opportunity to immerse myself in what I deeply love, and that's a privilege not everyone gets to enjoy ;) My current role offers a continuous source of inspiration, pushing me to give my best (even on my bad days), day in and day out. In these moments, when passion and profession align, I feel truly fulfilled and motivated to excel.
You don't stumble upon opportunities; you must actively generate them.
It emphasizes the proactive mindset needed when seeking opportunities. Instead of waiting for opportunities to come to you, take action, be creative, and actively pursue your goals. Whether it is related to your career, personal life, or any other aspect, you can create opportunities through your efforts and determination.
Open yourself to the possibilities; if you wait until you are ready, you might miss a unique chance. Be willing to have the hustle muscle to figure it out. Some opportunities might only come once, SEIZE them :)
First time featured on the official Nokia page
The moment I found myself featured on Nokia's official website (the very first time) was a proud and defining moment in my career. It was a recognition of the hard work and dedication I had put into my role, and it felt like a validation of my contributions to the company. Seeing my name and achievements showcased on such a prestigious platform was not only a personal triumph but also a testament to the support and opportunities that Nokia provides. It served as a motivating reminder that hard work and innovation do not go unnoticed, and it encouraged me to strive for even greater success in the future.
