about me

Hi, I'm Gautam Jain. A B.Tech CSE student and space enthusiast with a passion for building scalable solutions. I'm currently working as a Programmer Analyst at Cognizant.

My fascination with technology began in childhood, but it truly skyrocketed when I got my first PC. I was captivated by the power packed into such small machines, which led me to dive deep into Computer Science and pursue my Undergraduate Degree.

I graduated from GNDEC, Ludhiana in August 2023. Over four years, I built a rock-solid foundation in Data Structures, Algorithms, Operating Systems, and Database Management.

Beyond academics, I sharpened my problem-solving skills by competing on platforms like LeetCode, GeeksforGeeks, and HackerRank, maintaining a consistent daily streak. I've also collaborated with talented teams to develop open-source projects and gained hands-on experience as an SDE Intern at E-Cell, TNP Cell, and 11 Mantras.

Currently at Cognizant, I am honing my expertise in Java, Spring, Oracle SQL/PL-SQL, and Oracle Apps. I am always eager to explore how technology drives the modern world.

I am always open to discussing emerging technologies, brainstorming innovative project ideas, and exploring new opportunities with product-driven companies. Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn or check out my GitHub to see what I'm up to!
