Mahendra Mavani’s Summary

I am agile developer with 7 years of consulting experience across the world. My international work exposure includes clients from 5 different countries (USA, South Africa, Netherlands, Singapore and UK).

Initiated my carrier with Water fall and RUP methodology and quickly jumped onto the track of Agile/XP. I love designing simple and maintainable solution. My definition of maintainable includes open for extension, close for modification, high degree of automated test coverage and one with least possible technical debt. I believe in getting simple most solution for the complex business process.

My technical tenure was covered with combination of web and windows application development. Earlier phase of my design exposure covers writing Use Case, IDEFØ diagram, Sequence diagram and Activity diagrams as well as honoring CMMi 5 quality standards. However my current inclination is towards user story and iterative development.
