I had the pleasure of working closely with Vish at Ciena. Vish Mandala brought a deep understanding of technology and Data/Integration architecture, which they combined with exceptional execution skills to lead the successful implementation of complex integration projects. He was responsible for architecting the data, integrating multiple systems such as Salesforce, Snowflake, Oracle, Workday, and Custom applications, and ensuring seamless data flow across the organization.
His strong leadership skills were evident in how they rallied their team and ensured everyone was aligned and working towards common goals. And his positive attitude and proactive approach inspired everyone to give their best and motivated the team to achieve great results.

In my team he was the JAVA, SOA, CCB, Identity management trouble shooter for architectural/design/development issues. Always able to provide expert advice as well as open to collaboratively brain-storm for best outcomes for clients as well as the company. We were doing Oracle CCB integration in this project, he was the architect in integration’s side also he was the product expert at CCB side. I wondered him coding at CCB side, Java side and SOA side. He has been a star performer and I am sure he will always be on the top in multiple areas in single time. I inspired his knowledge striving habits always wanting to learn new technical skills, in fact l learnt the Identity Management fundamentals from him. A great technical teacher, I am looking forward to work with him.
