I am interested in the SharePoint developer job opportunity which is advertised in Dice.com. I am currently
employed as Technology Lead at Infosys Ltd. I have been working with Infosys for the last 9.5 years where I
have had the opportunity to grow from a .Net developer to a SharePoint team lead, work in different geographical
locations and interact with customers from India, United Kingdom and USA. During my career at Infosys, I have
received several awards for exceptional performance both at individual and team level.
I have been working in SharePoint application development and migration projects for the last 4 yea rs. As part
of project efforts I have worked in a wide range of 3rd party web parts and tools such as Nintex, K2 blackpearl,
Metalogix etc. I have also worked on most of the SharePoint service applications such as Search, BCS, PPS etc.,
Powershell scripts, content database backup and restores, providing customers with information architecture
and governance models to suit their specific needs across Sharepoint 2010 and SharePoint 2013.
Hence I feel that I am well equipped to work as a SharePoint developer and I believe that my work can make a
difference. I am interested in working in projects which are technically challenging and which stretch my
analytical capabilities. Through project execution I wish to achieve project goals as well as gain more
knowledge in the continuously evolving SharePoint platform.
To further acquaint you with the specifics of my background I enclose my resume. I look forward to meeting
with you and discussing my qualifications in detail.
Sincerely,
