Breaking the Silence: A Decade of Growth and Gratitude After 10 years of being off the radar, I’m finally breaking my social silence! Today, as a Senior Software Engineer at Walmart, I’m reflecting on an incredible journey filled with challenges, growth, and countless learning moments. From navigating the uncertainties of a rapidly changing tech landscape to building impactful solutions that reach millions, this journey has been nothing short of transformative. Each step has taught me the value of resilience, continuous learning, and the importance of surrounding yourself with inspiring people. I’m immensely grateful to the mentors, colleagues, and friends who have supported me along the way. Your guidance and encouragement have been invaluable. To aspiring engineers and professionals, my message is simple: keep learning, stay curious, and embrace the process—every challenge is an opportunity in disguise. I’m excited about the future, the projects ahead, and the chance to reconnect with all of you. Let’s inspire and uplift each other as we continue our respective journeys. If we’ve crossed paths before or if you’re just passionate about technology and growth, let’s connect—I’d love to hear your story and share ideas. Here’s to building a better tomorrow, together! #SoftwareEngineering #CareerGrowth #WalmartTech #Gratitude

Back in 2013, I joined Intuit straight out of college as an automation engineer in a desktop product. Had a great run for five years, but eventually decided to leave the company because wanted to explore the industry and learn more about myself. But nothing compares to the pivotal moment when decided to return last year taking on a mid-leadership role.  https://lnkd.in/gqvaUSeh As an engineer, have high expectations in projects, which is actually one of the reasons of returning back to Intuit. If had to tell you more about my experiential learning, then one particular year at Intuit stands out. It was the year that Intuit transitioned to AWS from its existing data centres and the India team got a massive project to work on! I was lucky to be part of an incredible team of engineers who took the opportunity to learn AWS as a new domain. Not restricting myself to a single domain has helped me learn frontend, backend and CloudOps. So when the AWS project came around, we dove headfirst into learning everything there was to know about the AWS stack. It was tough, but so worth it adding another domain to my skillset. I’m inspired by all the leaders who empowered me to take on new responsibilities in the early years of my career. And that’s the other reason to come back to Intuit. I want to pay it forward and give back by becoming that enabler for growing engineers in AI and mid-market tech stack. Being focused on making an impact, I’d say don't limit yourself as an engineer. Explore various domains, discover new horizons, and fulfil your purpose in innovation! 

Completed my 2 years at Intuit 🥳 Joining Intuit after 4 years of working at the same company was quite challenging. I was out of touch with the current trends and had to upskill myself. If you're in the same boat and re-entering the job market after a long time, this is what I recommend: ✅ Keep yourself updated by taking courses for the new tech stack. ✅ Keep going through design docs and videos to improve on the design aspect. ✅ Try to integrate co-pilot to write unit tests so that you can save your time there. ✅ Seek help from the leads and professionals inside and outside the company. You can do this by connecting with experienced engineers from your target companies on Preplaced. Get started by booking a FREE trial session: https://lnkd.in/gvQcc5Ch These professionals will help you improve your skills, prepare for interviews, stay updated on the latest technologies so that you can land your dream job at your desired company. ✨

Today marks my 🔟-year anniversary at Intuit. I didn't know it was a big deal until people started saying nice things about it. In a world where people only stay at a company for an average of 3.9 years, I'll chalk this up as a W! What I've learned: - Birds 🐦 of a feather ... - Fly with the smartest, kindest, & most driven people in the world & you'll become one too. (People at Intuit are all that & more) - Find your passion 💕 - If you like what you do & the people you do it with, you'll do the best work of your life; the opposite is also true ... I've done both. - Bruised bananas 🍌 make the best bread - Bring your whole self (this is my favorite Intuit value) ... bruises & all. Lean into what what makes you uniquely you - then put a spotlight on it & shine! People always follow the light. Bright lights are EVERYWHERE at Intuit! - Advocate ✋ for yourself - If you want something - say it, do it, ask for it; people aren't mind readers, and most people genuinely want to help. - Be the 🚵♀️ leader you want - Titles don't make leaders; people do. Think about how you want to be led & then demonstrate those characteristics as you work with others. - Nurture 🤗 your relationships - Spend time every day supporting those you care about & lifting others up. I've had so many people support & look out for me in so many ways - job opportunities, advocacy, friendship, sounding boards. Find them, hold them close, & remind them often that they have an ally in you. - Say yes 👍 to the unknown - Doesn't matter how deep the water is as long as you know how to swim. I never did the work I'm doing today until 3 years ago, but I said WTH and went for it. So glad I did. - Don't put too much energy ⚡ into the a-holes - whatever it is, it always comes out in the wash; just play a better long game Work Highlights 🎆 - 3 different roles in 3 different business units (all in comms) - 3 promotions - Global leader of the Intuit Women's Network - 6 Super Bowl campaigns - Countless events & brand launches - Crisis communications in every way, shape, & form - Engagement strategies from the C-Suite to the customer (it's all fun!) - Building, growing, & evolving how we communicate at every turn And most importantly, a big thank you to all of my brilliant, wonderful, kind current & former colleagues at Intuit. You have changed my life for the better & impacted me in more ways than you will ever know! I wouldn't have made it 10 years without you! (Too many to list; here's a start ...)

"There's no place like home" - indeed. Have you ever thought about going back to work for a former employer?  I've done it, twice, and it has paid off each time. It's been one month since I returned to the Intuit Israel family, and I couldn't be happier about my decision. 🏡✨ As I settle back into familiar routines, I can't help but reflect on my journey. During two years away, I gained invaluable experience, met talented individuals, and explored new areas, enriching my professional development. My returning to Intuit, was driven by the unique sense of belonging, celebrated collaboration, and impactful opportunities that align with my values. One of the things I value the most is the Intuit “Win Together” culture. Here, collaboration isn't just encouraged; it's celebrated. The emphasis on the "how" along with the "what" creates an environment where everyone can thrive and succeed together. Another aspect I value today even more than ever is the work with a top external tech stack, pushing limits and accessing cutting-edge technology. However, the  most rewarding part of returning is my pivotal role at the company and knowing my work significantly contributes to Intuit's success. If you are smiling right now it might be because that’s exactly what you’re looking for in a workplace, so I’ll take this opportunity to invite you to explore open roles on the Intuit career page: https://lnkd.in/dPaFMHdp Just a few days ago, I faced a technical challenge with my team. As they proposed solutions, I realized we needed a fundamental revisit of our Domain-Driven Design principles and ubiquitous language. This pivot allowed us to redefine our goals and achieve rapid alignment across different teams, sparking an impactful cross-company project.  This blend of familiarity and new challenges is enriching. It's great to be home where I know the culture and people, yet my fresh insights add value making this return a unique and rewarding journey. Here are some valuable insights I've gathered from my experience: 1. Leaving a company can provide you with fresh insights and experiences. When you return, you bring a wealth of new ideas that can be beneficial both for you and your employer. 2. Often, when you return to an organization, you're stepping into a more strategic role with greater impact. Your new skills and perspectives position you to contribute to the company in ways you might not have before. 3. Coming back means reconnecting with former colleagues and leveraging existing relationships to achieve professional goals. I want to thank everyone at Intuit for welcoming me back with open arms. Let's continue to power prosperity together and make a difference in the lives of millions! In the picture is Scott Cook, Intuit's founder, whom I had the pleasure of meeting 7 years ago when I joined the company first time. #CareerGrowth #IntuitCareer

🌟 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐭 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐮𝐢𝐭! 🌟 It's hard to believe it's already been a month since I joined Intuit. Before making the switch, I sought insights from many who were already part of the Intuit family, and everyone handed out positive reviews. Fast forward to today, I'm a testament to the incredible work culture here. Here are a few highlights of my experience so far: 1. 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐩: The support and motivation from everyone around here is truly inspiring. Whether it’s a quick question or a complex problem, colleagues are always ready to lend a hand. It goes a long way in fostering a sense of belonging and assurance that there are people to help you out if you ever get stuck. 2. 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: There's a well-defined process for everything, ensuring efficiency and clarity in our work. From project management to daily tasks to queries about how a particular process works, the structured approach helps in achieving goals effectively without unnecessary hurdles. 3. 𝐄𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲: At Intuit, we are encouraged to ask questions and voice our thoughts freely.

✨ Nokia ➡ Intuit ✨ I'm excited to share this news with you all that I have joined Intuit as a 𝐒𝐨𝐟𝐭𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐫 2. After three rewarding years at Nokia, I am eager to embark on this new journey with Intuit, known for its innovative fin-tech products and supportive, employee-centric culture. The road to get here wasn't easy, to be honest. Facing rejections from over 20+ companies, including notable ones like RedHat Recruitment, Autodesk, Amazon, Samsung India, Razorpay, Google etc was really challenging. These experiences highlighted the importance of continuous preparation and resilience. Watching others advance while feeling stuck, despite your best efforts, is tougher than words can convey. Maintaining motivation in the face of setbacks is a challenge many can relate to. The key lesson I've learned is the importance of preparation. I firmly believe that everything happens in its own time, but if you’re not ready when your moment comes, you might miss a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The key is to continually prepare, identify and work on your weak areas, regularly participate in interviews to understand your shortcomings and do everything possible to be more than 100% ready. I will be sharing all my experiences and trying to help others learn from the mistakes I made so that they can have a smoother preparation journey. If my story and learnings can inspire or assist even one person in their journey, it will be worthwhile for me. A big big thank you to Love Babbar, Lakshay Kumar and raj vikramaditya for their valuable educational content over Codehelp and takeUforward respectively. 90% of what I know and have learnt as of today is because of them. Looking forward to a great journey ahead! 😊 Follow Soubhik Ghosh for more updates ✨ #SoftwareEngineering #CareerAdvice #TechTrends #ProfessionalDevelopment #Innovation #Milestone #careerSwitch #development #jobs #softwareDeveloper

I am only 10 working day out from my separation with Intuit. Having this closely coincide with the end of the 2024 calendar year allows me much time for reflection on my career and choices I have made over the years. I was once asked by a hiring director why after the number of years that I had been with the company why I was still in the role that I was not pushing for promotions. My simple answer was that I enjoyed what I did and the people that I worked with. Having the ability to own a process e2e and helping other is something that I love to do. The biggest struggle I have had is trying to teach those that do not want to learn. The "Just give me the answer" people have always perplexed me. If you do not know something that is a part of your job why would you not want to learn it? I have found that many of these people are overwhelmed with what is on their plate and the idea of stopping to learn something new makes them feel stressed. What they in many cases do not realize is that fact that if they took the time to learn where their shortcomings are that they could better serve themselves and those around them. Last month I finished re-reading a book by Brian Tracy titled Eat that Frog! It is an easy read but through the 113 pages of the book it instills the need to take on the biggest and most impactful tasks as soon as possible. The "Frog" representing the biggest or hardest thing you need to do for the day is what most people tend to procrastinate until later. In the Frogs place the instead go after the tadpole. The small tasks that are of much less importance and have the least amount of impact. While completing these tadpoles may provide a sense of accomplishment they do not in fact have carry much weight in what truly needs to be done. I guess what I am saying in this post is look for the tasks that matter most and will move the project or your career forward. There is 20/80 rule that states that 20 percent of the work can provide 80 percent of the benefit. If you are always eating the tadpole and shying away from your frog you will always be under performing.
