How Gokul Switched a Comfortable Role at Infosys for an Engineering Job at General Electric

Before the Switch#

Gokul Nair was a Digital Specialist Engineer at Infosys, which is not a bad place to be. But Gokul was not interested in comfortable. He was interested in capable. He wanted to be the kind of engineer who could walk into a company like General Electric and build things that actually matter. That kind of ambition requires more than seniority. It requires skill, specifically the hands-on, industry-relevant kind that most online courses fail to deliver.

The Point Where Things Had to Change#

The challenge for mid-career developers is not finding content to learn from. The internet is full of it. The challenge is finding learning that actually translates to job performance, content that is not just conceptually correct but practically useful in the environments where engineers work. Gokul needed a Spring Boot course that would give him real experience, not just familiarity. He found that in Coding Shuttle.

He enrolled while still working at Infosys and committed to doing the work properly, not skimming through videos but actually building, breaking things, and learning from the process.

Where Coding Shuttle Came In#

What made the difference for Gokul was the emphasis on hands-on experience. The Coding Shuttle Spring Boot course was not a passive viewing exercise. It demanded active participation. Students did not just watch someone else build things. They built things themselves, which is the only way to develop the kind of confidence that shows up in technical interviews and on the job.

Gokul summed it up in a way that only an efficiency-minded engineer would: low cost, high output. That framing says a lot about how he approached the course and how seriously he took it.

In Gokul's Own Words#

"If You want a hands on experience and want to clear all the concepts on almost all the topics which current industry requires then this course is for you. I would tell its an Low cost high output course if you put your maximum efforts in completing this course."

Where He Stands Today#

Gokul Nair is now a Software Engineer at General Electric in Bangalore. He left one of India's biggest IT firms for a global industrial technology company and he made that transition on the strength of skills he built deliberately and seriously. His story is proof that when you put in maximum effort, the output is exactly what you worked for.
