Software Product Development

Tarun Upadhyay   //  Tarun is still just flatly amazed by the power of the Internet, its ability to level the field and help the little guy compete with the biggest organizations.

Those little guy success stories are what drags him to work every morning and he lives a small part of that little guy's dream working for hCentive.

Prior to co-founding hCentive, Tarun served as a co-founder and CTO for GlobalLogic - an outsourcing service provider for large, complex products and software - which grew from 0 to 400 engineers while he was the CTO.

Prior to Globallogic, he was co-founder and CTO of Pinelabs - an India-based provider of Loyalty and Payment solutions using Smart Cards. While Tarun was CTO, Pinelabs grew from a drawing board idea to a suite of successful products running at many fortune 500 companies handling millions of credit card transactions per day.

Tarun holds an M.S in Mathematics and Computer Applications from Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, India.

Lessons from Buffet and Gates

by tarun upadhyay
Brian Haligan talks about some nice things to learn from Warren Buffet and Bill Gates. I specially liked how important Gates think reading is.
When asked if Gates could be a superhero, what power he'd want to have, he said he'd like to be able to be the fastest reader in the world.
Buffet also thinks that the most important skill he has is the ability to focus. Its important to stress that in our society where every geek thinks that having an attention-deficit disorder is not a bad thing. On life and career, Buffet thinks that we should do what we love sooner than later and in business that is the biggest predictor of success.
