EKA Solutions

Developer

Making the move to Australia was a big leap and had me coming out without my family to find a place to live and work. Being able to join the eka team working on their commodity management platform was such a great opportunity. Sadly I knew when starting that my time would be limited as a contractor and I am going to miss all the great people. I’m sure we will continue to see each other well into the future, we have become good friends and you have been a great introduction into Australia and the workforce.

Having a chance to work with Viterra in understanding how the grain is traded was very insightful.
