I'll soon be starting an online training course for absolute beginners who want to learn computer programming so as to start a career in software development. To receive an email when the course is launched, please sign up for the mailing list.

An independent software developer and teacher living in India
Latest programming videos
I am a software developer living in Noida, India. I've been programming since May 1997. From 1997 - 2004-ish, it was Visual Basic and Win32 API. Since after then, it has mostly been C# .NET but with some experience in client-side JavaScript, Java, Kotlin, and Node -- in that order.
I've also dabbled with C/C++ (quite a bit), Python (not so much) and Scheme (very, very, very tiny bit) but that's why I won't mention them at all.
I write software and also teach. I am very good at both.
I'm looking for work. I'm also open to full-time employment offers.
What kind of full-time roles are you open to?
Ideally, a technical leadership role where I train and mentor your technical team helping them develop great products for you or projects for your clients.
If you'd like to hire me as a senior software engineer and write code, though, I would like to be given some autonomy in the following aspects of work:
- I would like to give my input about how long something would take with room for flexibility.
- I would request a minimum participation in phone calls during my evening hours.
A Request:
My present situation allows me to work either from an office in Noida where I live with frequent work-from-home days or
simply to work remotely from my home in case you do not have an office in Noida. I am able to travel as required for short
periods of time, say a week at a time every month or so.
If you're okay with that arrangement, please send me an email at Sathyaish at gmail dot com mentioning the role you are considering hiring me for and the budget.
Once you send me an email with your training requirement, based on the level of articulation of your requirement, I will send you a quote along with my terms and conditions, and a request for a 50% advance.
Upon your written acceptance in email of the terms, and upon receipt of the 50% advance payment, I will be able to get on a call with you and we'll work it from there.
If you'd like a training that's not in the list, please email me and ask anyway. It's hard to think up every little tool, technology and/or skill and put it in a list. I just might be able to teach that thing as well.
All training programs are practical, hands-on programming oriented with plenty of coding exercises for the students also to do.
