"I remember my first day, I started on a Saturday – I had travelled to Singapore to attend Akamai University Live in 2015, a major sales event. I was introduced to a room full of Senior Executives at Akamai and that was a truly welcoming start." Meet Soumitra, he's based in 📍 Bangalore for #AkamaiIndia, where he works as a Director of Engineering (Data Experience). We asked him more about his journey his best memory with us: "In my first year at Akamai, I partook in the Wizards program, where my submission was chosen amongst the top 10 innovative ideas. I had the chance to pitch before Tom Leighton, our CEO and board of directors. The intrapreneurial spirit to innovate and the opportunity has been etched in my memory. I have since been part of the Akamai Wizards core team and it is rewarding to be associated with this innovation program. Every individual, be a new hire or experienced, irrespective of their level in the hierarchy can make a difference – every idea counts in the success of the organisation."
"I chose to work for Akamai because I was very impressed with the work they do – I loved the interactions I had had with the leaders during the interview process, especially the passion everyone shared about Akamai. This got me hooked, and after further research, I had a strong desire to be a part of this company and its growth." This is Neha, she works for our team at #AkamaiIndia, based in 📍 Bangalore, Karnataka as a Director of Engineering 🤩 Here's more on her 15-year journey with us: "My journey has been phenomenal. I have interacted with the smartest of people who are all driven by a common vision and mission. In my tenure here, I have had the opportunity to try different roles and most of those have been where the customer is “central” and this has led to my current role as Engineering Director, part of the Customer Enablement Engineering group. Akamai has has given me opportunities to grow in multiple dimensions with incredibly supportive leadership. I also get to brag about how: 'We make the internet work…' 😃"
