Tell us about the success stories of employees who have risen through NayaOne’s ranks

Vitelli tells us his own story, starting with a background in English literature and working his way up with the help of CEO Karan Jain: “With little to no technical experience before joining NayaOne, I was both nervous and excited. Excited by the fast-paced nature of the industry and the vision of where NayaOne would be in the coming years, I dove in head first.

“Within a short period of time, I was supported to build technical skills to be able to talk to partners and to be able to demonstrate our platform to some of the largest organizations in the world. I am incredibly fortunate to work as part of a team that did not limit my role based on my lack of technical experience, but supported me to learn and expand my knowledge and horizons. I am incredibly proud to work for a company that has strong values ​​and truly supports the growth of women in technology!”
