Staff Software Engineer, Visa
"I mentored Amrita during her internship at Visa. From my memory, Amrita is a fast learner and team player. We did a POC together about a quite complex component with numerous unique and specific requirements from different product lines. She was able to learn both Frontend and Backend technologies with a large set of terminologies, standards, team conventions, and workflows. I'm glad to see her grow and it's great to have her on the team."
