In the last 4 years I have learnt many skills such as multitasking, working on new modules, professional interaction with clients, learning to be flexible and many more. I had started my career as a developer and now I am leading a Team. Rising up in my career is fulfilling- both personally and professionally. I wish to thank Modus for this opportunity. Sharing my experience with your all- while working with one co-op bank: My assignment involved complete SDLC (Analysis, Design, Coding, Testing) of NPA loans and NPA CCOD module. It was a rare and great opportunity as I was involved in the Project end-to-end, from which one can get complete knowledge of a module. There were few challenges initially as banks keep on changing requirements as per RBI guidelines. In this process I learnt that there should be code flexibility to incorporate changes, else we will have to change the complete approach/design. We could successtully Go Live with the help of my supporting manager and team members. Modus offers opportunity to grow professionally and personally along with great work life balance.




Gurpreet Singh Vig- Project Manager.

I am Gurpreet Singh Vig, I am an Ex-Banker and associated with BFS And IT Industry for more than 14 years. I have been associated with MODUS since 2020. The experiences that I have gained along the way are irreplaceable and extremely useful. Modus is an amazing workplace it provides relevant platforms to learn and explore new technologies. I find the culture open and transparent enough to encourage thinking out loud. Working around like-minded people helps me get outside my comfort zone, enhance my knowledge and capabilities. It has helped me reach great heights by offering me new learning opportunities and strengthening my inherent skills with its rich and diverse organisational culture. Modus has provided me many opportunities, and I have been tagged with many projects including implementation during my stay with the firm. On how to manage a team, there can be numerous ways depending on one's view. To manage a team, we need to be a good Leaders. Being from a Sports background and having led my Hockey team from a very young age in school college state level, leading my team in the past gave me some experience and qualities. I prefer being a coach or a leader rather than being a Manager, I carried the legacy by being a Coach for my team rather than a manager. As a leader we need to listen, as vou know silent and listen both have the same alphabets, to precisely listen you needs to be silent. Coaches/ Leaders actively listen, build rapport, ask questions, and give constructive feedback. If you want to successfully manage a team, you must become a good coach/ leader. As a leader you need to understand the challenges faced at the very root level by the team, analyse them given them valuable suggestion to overcome those challenges. There shall always be the fear to lose or to fail, but believe me, this fear is also good, if a person has such good fear this shows how serious/committed he she is towards the activity assigned in the project. Evert small step taken in a project is a key step taken towards the accomplishment of the project is the mantra for successful leader. My Advice to the youngsters: 1.Have good Attitude towards work. 2.Invest in learning as this is the best Investment for you. Grab the opportunities & Challenges that come your way

Nithyanand Shetty- Senior Business Analyst

My relationship with Modus dates to 2008 when Iwas working for Bank Dhofar, OMAN. Then I used to work closely with Modus team, handing interface track during migration from legacy CBS to Finacle. Later, I moved to Indiato work for a Mumbai based Bank and the bank engaged Modus for migration of legacy CBS to Finacle, this was year 2015. Modus had by then demonstrated quality in work and commitment to timelines. I was lucky to be part of Modus from the year 2016, except for a short break due to personal reasons. As I look back and now, talents within Modus are great, cross-functional and technically mature. Such type of collaborative strength is rare to find in many organizations Currently, I am handling interface track and happy to be aligned with a few ongoing projects. The support from project team & management, be it on technical, functional and personal is superlative. I feel there is a lot to learn from them. Lastly, over the last 20 years, Modus has built its own recognition & reputation in Banking space; to be precise - Finacle implementation, customization & support. My advice to all is that focus on tasks, show eagerness to learn, be committed & be respectful towards colleagues. This is the key to career satisfaction. Last but not the least, Modus is a "great place" which provides plenty of opportunities for career growth. Wishing each one in MODUS family success and bright future ahead.
