Ajit Sundaresh U
I am a Quality Assurance Engineer with 6+ years of experience at Capgemini. During this journey, I specialised in complex integration-driven testing projects for Salesforce CRM applications for various clients. I developed expertise in end-to-end system testing, stakeholder management, client engagement, and cross-functional collaboration. Working extensively on integration testing projects helped me understand business and products from both technical and business perspectives, giving me exposure to complete end-to-end user journeys and large-scale enterprise systems. These experiences strengthened my analytical thinking, leadership, problem-solving, and communication skills, while also sparking my interest in business strategy and management. Driven by this growing interest, I am now pursuing my PGDM at XLRI Jamshedpur to enhance my business acumen, broaden my strategic perspective, and prepare myself for leadership roles where I can contribute to organisational growth and decision-making at a larger scale. I’m always eager to learn new things, take on challenges, and connect with people from diverse backgrounds. I believe in continuous growth, staying curious, and making meaningful contributions both personally and professionally.
