A heart-warming moment for Krish TechnoLabs, Magento has officially declared one of our comrade Rakesh Jesadiya as Magento Master 2018 in the Maker category. Rakesh is selected based on his 2017 contributions through consistently moderating and helping others on the Magento Forums and on Magento StackExchange as well as extensive contributions to Magento DevDocs.
To get to know a little about this achievement, we have taken the opportunity to ask him some questions:
I joined Krish as a Jr. Magento developer in 2015 and started exploring Magento Stack Exchange to have hands on the newly released Magento 2. Fortunately, I was assigned the first Magento 2 project in the company. I got obsessive of helping people with their issues on Stack Exchange and continued to contribute to the community and spreading the spirit of the Magento Community. In May 2017, I was nominated as a Top Magento Contributor for India and got recognition at the Magento Live, Bangalore event. It was an amazing experience meeting Magento mavens and most importantly, meeting Sherrie Rohde, Community Manager, Magento Commerce. When I asked her the mantra to Magento Masters, she kindly responded – contribute to Magento Community Forums and Magento DevDocs. This was a turning point for me as I started helping people and actively engaging on both these platforms along with Magento Stack Exchange. Next up, we had a big Magento event held at our own city Ahmedabad, and I got a prominent recognition as Top Contributor, India. And today, the dream came true – Personally, it is an honor to receive this recognition.
I think there are many people out there who deserve it and I am sure that in the future they will get it. Well, the truth is that this recognition is based on internal nominations within Magento and take into account certain parameters. The recognition has been given to me for the approach that I followed this past 2017, as I participated as an active contributor in the Magento Community forums and DevDocs.
At work I do not think it affects me at all, I’m very happy with Krish TechnoLabs, I can research and carry out projects marking the development strategy and I also have time to interact with the community, learn from them and also help them. I have a lot of freedom but I also have a great responsibility. This gives me wings to continue working. This award is not only mine, it is for all my team, and I urge them to contribute so that the Magento community continues to grow in India and in the rest of the world.
