# Tejal Shah > Full Stack Software Engineer at Carrot Sense, Inc. Location: San Francisco Bay Area, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/tejalshah A self-motivated results-driven IT professional who loves to push the envelope by drawing inspiration from my surroundings and blending it with my own experience and knowledge. 6+ years of client-facing experience has taught me to view problem domains holistically and analytically weave software solutions with great client-focus and attention to detail. I have the proven ability to juggle multiple roles through a software development lifecycle to ensure smooth delivery of large-scale systems in a global cross-functional setting. I have navigated 20+ successful software releases delivering impactful client outcomes. Currently, I am an aspiring Software Developer who is kept up at night for the love of puzzles. I equate algorithms and design solutions to puzzles that I try solving or optimizing; sort of like a Rubik’s cube. With an undergraduate degree in Computer Science, experience delivering large-scale enterprise solutions and full stack projects in Node.js, J2EE and Android, I look forward to taking on coding challenges of the real-world.
