A final year project&nbsp; got me into the world of backend and Android. Post graduation, I decided to dive into the world of Apple and built my skillsets to become an iOS developer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3560\" src=\"https:\/\/loginextsolutions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/pankaj.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.loginextsolutions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/pankaj.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.loginextsolutions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/pankaj-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>From here, I decided to work with some of the top industry giants as a contractor to get hands on experience on several projects and gain a lot of exposure in a short amount of time.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Leading various Mobile App development teams to get the product in the market, being involved in lots of boot camps&nbsp;across various cities helped me reach a stage where I finally found myself with the team at LogiNext!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I work as a&nbsp;<b>Senior iOS Engineer <\/b>&nbsp;where my role is not solely developing new features but additionally ensuring the code quality is of the highest standard.&nbsp; Apart from this, I&#8217;m also known as the Chief Meme Officer \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>LN: How has your time at&nbsp;LogiNext been? Tell us something about your day-to-day life in the office.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>PT: The most common answer to the present question you&#8217;d hear is &#8220;My Journey has been a roller coaster ride&#8221;. In my case, to make a long story short, in a short amount of time I feel like I&#8217;ve really been in LogiNext for years!&nbsp;And this is because of the atmosphere and the people around you. Day-to-day life in the office involves multiple rounds of technical brainstorming separated by tea breaks, at times tech\/gossip discussions over tea.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>LN: What&#8217;s the best thing you like about your role?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>PT: I love challenges and that&#8217;s what I like about jobs where the stakes are high! I also love the fact that the product team is open to inputs and the platform evolves as a collaborative effort. I also like to share knowledge with everyone and cherish the fact that everyone grows together in this process.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3557\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3557\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3557\" src=\"https:\/\/loginextsolutions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/pankaj.jpeg\" alt=\"Pankaj with the tech team at LogiNext\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.loginextsolutions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/pankaj.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.loginextsolutions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/pankaj-768x432.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3557\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pankaj with the tech team at LogiNext<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>LN: Any tips for aspiring professionals in&nbsp;your domain?
