Sarim, is as talented with creating elegant solutions to complex problems, as he is intrinsically dedicated to supporting his team and continuous improvements.

As a direct example of how exceptional would, Sarim joined Paessler's Cloud/IoT business, and not only did he onboard faster than all expectations, he decided to document his experiences and learnings so his existing and new team colleagues could benefit from his learnings. All without any management request or even a "how about .. " from a colleague. He simply is that kind of person.

Working with Sarim was a pleasure I hope I have the privilege to repeat. He is an asset to any team he joins, and a natural born leader.

He has my upmost support, and recommendation.

Our project created a distributed AWS-cloud-based system collecting data from vehicles such as speed, mileage, GPS position, etc. Working for a huge German client the project involved over 40 colleagues in our company and about the same number of partner developers and spanning about 4 years in total. Sarim joined our team as Software Engineer in August 2017. Since then, he has been delivering excellent results by being persistent, hardworking and without complains even on tedious tasks. Being thrown into a lot of brand new topics and technologies, Sarim was always eager, enthusiastic to learn and also to adopt new methodologies incl. Kanban, agile mind set and many more. Sarim grew a lot even during the short period of time by taking over more and more responsibilities from other experienced experts. If there were important project deliveries or milestones to reach, I could always rely on Sarim. In summary, Sarim is hardworking, eager to learn, result oriented which makes him grow faster in his areas of responsibilities.
