Skoda Fabia launches in Pune

January 1, 2008 · 42 Comments

The buzz in town is that the hot little Skoda Fabia is about to step out into the big world right here in Pune in 7 days from now.

What is this post doing here? It only started out as a tribute to a great looking car I aspire to own. However, the comments have been insightful, from people arguing about the price to the delivery schedule (apparently, deliveries start in June 2008).

  5. You knew which teachers favorite line was ”Your handwriting looks like chicken walked on sand, bloody fool”
  6. You know who ANNA is

We promote a warm, informal and no-frills culture. We believe joy at work comes from meaningful contributions, participation in decision making and profits, and above all from fun and interactive relationships with peers and mentors.

    Our company philosophy is:

    • Winning matters.

    • Application development experience for the Linux - Apache - PHP - MySQL platform would be a definite plus.
    • Understanding of HTML/DHTML and CSS standards is a plus.
    • Familiarity with developer tools: Subversion/CVS, Bugzilla, Wiki is a plus.
    • Strong problem solving skills.
    • Excellent verbal and written skills with outstanding customer service.

    Besides technical skills, we value people who are proactive, detail-oriented, execution-focused and passionate about application usability. You may lack experience in some of the above skills but must demonstrate a strong willingness to learn.

    We are a small, experienced and energetic development team. You will be exposed to all aspects of product development and in the process develop strong technical and interpersonal skills.
