About Me
I'm Jay Sharma, a seasoned tech and product leader journeying through the ever-evolving landscape of technology from the vibrant heart of Seattle. The spark for leadership and personal development was lit within me during my early career shifts, revealing the transformative power of competent leadership on individuals, teams, and even entire organizations. From that revelatory moment, I've been on a relentless quest to empower aspiring tech leaders, mentoring them to realize their own career aspirations.
About Me and KodeSphere
My credentials? I currently helm the Match Recommendations Platform at Indeed.com, ensuring you find the job that matches your skill set and dreams. Before this, I navigated through some of the tech industry's giants—Bloomberg, PayPal, Microsoft, and Amazon, to name a few. Each chapter taught me invaluable lessons, turning challenges into stepping stones for future triumphs.
But there's a chapter of my life that I consider my own crash course in leadership and entrepreneurship—KodeSphere. Launched in 2008, it was home to Proofhub, a project management solution we eventually sold. Today, KodeSphere has metamorphosed into a platform for exclusive leadership advice, 1:1 coaching, and targeted interview preparation. I'm your go-to resource if you're set on elevating your leadership acumen and zooming up the career ladder. Visit KodeSphere to unveil the professional future you deserve.
More about Jay Sharma
Away from the hustle, my life orbits around family, financial independence, and the joy of unraveling new cultures—particularly that fascinating journey from India to the U.S. These elements aren't just pastimes; they're the yin to my professional yang, grounding me and enriching my worldview.
My academic foundation is equally solid—I hold a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Maharshi Dayanand University and an MBA from the University of Michigan. But as I always say, authentic learning goes beyond the walls of academia.
