        I've worked with Aakash for around 4 years at TP-Link Kasa, and I really can't thank Aakash enough for making those 4 years feel like a breeze. His ability to adapt, learn and execute multiple projects really amazed me during the time I worked with him. He's patient, approachable and reliable which makes him stand out. 
Aakash has a flair for IoT, AWS and Java and I'm sure he can tackle any technical challenge, known or unknown with ease. You really want Aakash by your side for any high-pressure, time/mission critical workloads to be executed successfully.
I highly recommend working with Aakash and wish him all the best for his future endeavors. Farza Pulikkalakath
