Developer | Tester | Creator | Connector
Hi, I am Sahaj Balgunde, a bilingual IT professional, creative thinker and someone who never stops learning.
I have over four years of experience working with ERP (Microsoft D365 F&O / Business Central), software testing and multilingual web development. What excites me most is bridging technology and culture. I have worked with Japanese and Indian teams where I contributed through translation, localization testing and UI/UX design, making technology more human and global.
Outside of work, I am a published author, poet and music enthusiast. Creativity keeps me balanced and I love building connections through writing, art and collaboration. For me, technology is not just about solving problems, it is about connecting people.
I have passed JLPT N2, which allows me to work comfortably in Japanese, and I am also learning Italian (A1) to keep expanding my global journey.
I am always open to projects, collaborations or simply sharing ideas, so let’s connect.
