Could you give a brief account of your professional background and experiences?
After completing my B.Tech engineering from IIT, Roorkee, I began my professional journey as a software developer. In the initial few years, I worked in India and later moved to Amsterdam. So, I'm a professional developer by heart. In between, I also completed a cybersecurity course from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
I've worked in many sectors such as oil, energy, aviation, banking, and others. And when I was working in those sectors in different positions, I saw a gap between the quality of the services and products expected by the client. The products delivered by the vendors were not great at that point in time. Identifying this gap as an opportunity, I decided to start a business that bridges the quality gap in the IT services industry. I named the company Ariqt which means filling the blank space.
